Overview
- Netflix confirmed on Sunday that principal photography for Scooby‑Doo: Origins has finished, and the series is scheduled to arrive on the streamer in 2027.
- The show will tell an origin story set during a final summer at camp that brings younger versions of Shaggy, Daphne, Velma and Fred together around a haunting mystery.
- For the first time in the franchise the title role will be played by a real Great Dane rather than relying solely on animation or CGI.
- The principal young cast includes McKenna Grace as Daphne, Tanner Hagen as Shaggy, Abby Ryder Fortson as Velma and Maxwell Jenkins as Fred, with a large supporting ensemble also announced.
- Filming took place in Atlanta, Josh Appelbaum and Scott Rosenberg serve as showrunners, Toby Haynes directed episode one, and the real-dog approach is likely to shape post-production work and marketing as the series moves toward its 2027 debut.
