Netflix Announces Full Cast for Scooby-Doo Series

Netflix has announced the full cast for its upcoming live-action series based on the iconic Scooby-Doo franchise, completing the lineup of the Mystery Inc. team with three new additions alongside previously cast Mckenna Grace as Daphne Blake.

Maxwell Jenkins will portray Fred Jones, the group's leader; Tanner Hagen will play Norville "Shaggy" Rogers; and Abby Ryder Fortson will take on the role of Velma Dinkley.
