Well, The CW’s Powerpuff Girls live-action series has filled all its main cast.
The new series, just called Powerpuff, will see the titular heroines now in their twenties and no longer together as a super-team as they have become disillusioned with the world they saved many times before something happens that forces them to get the band back together and rush into danger.
Well, the Powerpuff Girls will be played by Chloe Bennet, Dove Cameron and Yana Perrault (pictured left) as Blossom, Bubbles and Buttercup respectively but no we know that Scrubs star Donald Faison will play Professor Utonium, the scientist who created the Powerpuff Girls and treats them as his daughters, he’s the technical male lead in the series.
I mentioned above that the team reunites to fight a new threat and now we know what that threat will be… or, rather, who.
Summertime Dropouts star Nicholas Podany will play Joseph ‘Jojo’ Mondel Jr in the series.
In the original animated series he was a child obsessed with the PP Girls and may now have grown up to continue his father’s role as the villain in the original series.
The series has so far gone to pilot. There is currently no word on when the episode will appear but we’ll keep you posted.
