Netflix is said to have secured the rights to produce a reimagined live-action series based on the classic Warner Bros. IP, Scooby-Doo! The Live-Action Series.

The project, from Greg Berlanti's Berlanti Productions and Warner Bros. Television, was acquired by the streamer in a competitive bidding situation, as reported by Deadline.

While specific plot details are being kept secret, the series will draw inspiration from the beloved Hanna-Barbera cartoon.

Warner Bros. Television will oversee production, following the recent launch of their "Dead Boys Detectives" series on Netflix.

The show will be written and executive produced by Josh Appelbaum and Scott Rosenberg, along with André Nemec and Jeff Pinkner under their Midnight Radio banner.

If the project moves forward, it will join the ranks of previous live-action Scooby-Doo adaptations.

The 2002 live-action film "Scooby-Doo," featuring Freddie Prinze Jr., Sarah Michelle Gellar, Matthew Lillard, and Linda Cardellini, alongside Neil Fanning as the voice of Scooby, was a box office hit, grossing over $250 million worldwide.
