The announcements of reboots of our favorite childhood shows are always taken with a grain of salt, and The Powerpuff Girls was no different. The CW is currently developing a live-action version of the beloved Cartoon Network animated series, but what is it all about?

The Powerpuff Girls reboot started filming in early April, with Chloe Bennet, Dove Cameron, and Yana Perrault playing Blossom, Bubbles, and Buttercup. But when behind-the-scenes images started circulating online, fans weren’t too pleased with what they’ve seen.

Twitter users dragged the costume department, saying they’ve seen Halloween and Comic-Con costumes better than these ones. The CW quickly did damage control by releasing a first look at the characters wearing modern clothes, saying they only wear the viral costumes in flashbacks to their teenage years.

The Powerpuff Girls reboot will focus on the titular trio as grown-ups, and its official logline says it centers on “disillusioned twentysomethings who resent having lost their childhood to crime-fighting.” Despite the costume debacle, this updated version looks pretty promising because Heather Regnier and the Oscar winner Diablo Cody are in charge of writing it.

The release date of The Powerpuff Girls remains a mystery, because the series only got a pilot order and filming is currently underway.

We can always count on Hollywood studios to turn back to the past once they run out of new ideas. If you don’t mind getting nostalgia overload every once in a while, you’ll be happy to hear that live-action versions of your favorite childhood cartoons are on the way.

Netflix – “Fate: The Winx Saga”

The live-action version of the Nickelodeon animated series Winx Club premiered on Netflix back in January, and it was polarizing from the get-go. The tone differed too much from the original cartoon, but some viewers came to love it after looking at it as its own thing.

Paramount+: “Dora the Explorer” and “The Fairly OddParents”

Paramount is currently developing its own streaming service, and they’re expected to give us several live-action adaptations of our favorite cartoons. The new version of The Fairly OddParents will be part of their programming, but they’re also plotting another live-action take on Dora the Explorer.

The CW: “The Powerpuff Girls”

The live-action version of Cartoon Network’s beloved series The Powerpuff Girls is coming to The CW, and it already found its leads. Chloe Bennet (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.), Dove Cameron (Descendants), and Yana Perrault (Jagged Little Pill) have been cast as Blossom, Bubbles, and Buttercup.
