Netflix has revealed the first look at the live-action Scooby-Doo series titled Scooby-Doo: Origins. It features Mckenna Grace as Daphne, Tanner Hagen as Shaggy, Abby Ryder Fortson as Velma, and Maxwell Jenkins as Fred, but Scooby-Doo is missing.
Filming is currently underway in Atlanta for the live-action series, which will tell the origin story of Mystery Inc.

Based on the characters from Hanna-Barbera, the new show is a modern reimagining of the iconic mystery-solving group of teens and their very special dog.
According to the Netflix logline, “During their final summer at Camp Ruby-Spears, old friends Shaggy and Daphne get embroiled in a haunting mystery surrounding a lonely, lost Great Dane puppy that may have been a witness to a supernatural murder. Together with the pragmatic and scientific townie Velma, and the strange but ever-so-handsome new kid Freddy, they set out to solve the case that is pulling each of them into a creepy nightmare that threatens to expose all of their secrets.”
