Scooby-Doo: Origins marks the first time in the Scooby-Doo franchise that the character of Scooby-Doo will be portrayed by a real Great Dane dog.
A modern reimagining of the iconic mystery-solving group of teens and their very special dog. During their final summer at camp, 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.
With production now underway in Atlanta and an impressive ensemble joining the previously announced young cast, Scooby-Doo: Origins is shaping up to be one of Netflix’s most ambitious family genre projects to date. Blending coming-of-age drama, supernatural mystery, and a fresh take on the beloved franchise, the series promises to explore how Mystery Inc. first came together while introducing audiences to the first live-action portrayal of Scooby-Doo as a real Great Dane. Scooby-Doo: Origins is slated to debut globally on Netflix in 2027.
