We’ll be able to see the superhero sisters once again, but this time as actual people.
The classic Cartoon Network series Powerpuff Girls is getting a live-action version. According to reports, the series is in development at The CW and is being spearheaded by Juno writer Diablo Cody and creator of the Arrowverse, Greg Berlanti.
However, in the live-action version of the show, they’re no longer cute little kids who fight crime. Instead it will follow the superhero sisters, Blossom, Bubbles, and Buttercup as adults and are resentful that they missed out on their childhood in order to fight crime.
Since the series is still in the works, there is no casting information or a release date for the series.
The Powerpuff Girls ran for six seasons between 1998 and 2005 on Cartoon Network. It was created by Craig McCracken, and follows the story of three kindergarten-age sisters who got superhero powers after their scientist father, Professor Utonium, combined “sugar, spice and everything nice with the mysterious Chemical X.” The show was later rebooted in 2016 and ran until June 2019.
We can’t wait for the show to put sugar, spice, and everything nice into our lives once again.
