Netflix’s live-action Scooby-Doo prequel is set up as an origin story, with Mckenna Grace cast as a young Daphne Blake and the rest of the gang being built around that younger Mystery Inc. lineup. The series follows Daphne, Shaggy, Velma, Freddy, and Scooby as camp friends pulled into a mystery involving a Great Dane puppy and a supernatural murder.

First look

The early reveal has focused on Grace as the center of the prequel, since she’s the first major cast member to be announced. The show is being pitched as a contemporary take that explains how the gang first came together.

Why fans are excited

Grace already has a connection to the franchise, since she voiced Daphne in SCOOB!. That makes her casting feel like a natural fit, and fans are treating it like a return to a role she has already helped define.

What the series is

Netflix ordered eight episodes of the series in 2025, and it is described as a fresh origin story rather than a straight remake. The plot leans into teen adventure, mystery, and the spooky tone that made Scooby-Doo a long-running hit.
