First Photos From Live-action Reboot Of ‘The Powerpuff Girls’ Disappoint Fans


Sugar! Spice! and Everything Nice! (Boom) Chemical-X! Pretty sure most of us made it a point to watch this iconic intro while catching up on our daily dose of cartoons on Cartoon Network. 

Yes, long before Amazonian Princess Diana AKA Wonder Woman or Captain Marvel, there were a trio of mutated girls created in a laboratory, who came to be known as the beloved "Powerpuff Girls."

The animated show about the supergirls pretty much garnered the attention of everyone, be it a girl or a boy, as the trio fought crime using their awesome powers while also juggling school, before getting tucked in bed by their human father and creator, Professor Utonium.

While the 90s kids are now all grown up and managing the payments of rent, electricity and (meh) the usual pandemic life, there is a news that will hit it right in the feels.

According to latest reports, the live-action reboot of  The Powerpuff Girls has officially begun production stages.

The new CW series, which received the green light for the pilot season in February, is being directed by Maggie Kiler, who took to Instagram to confirm the news of the production.

Moreover, in what was an added bonus, the set photos released from the production offered a glimpse of actors Chloe Bennet, Dove Cameron, and Yana Perrault donning the cartoon-accurate costumes of Blossom, Bubbles and Buttercup.

However, while the red, blue and green colored signature costumes have been designed with the dress and belt in a similar manner to the iconic cartoon show, many fans showed their displeasure. 

Here are some of the reactions shared on microblogging website Twitter:

Clearly, the fans aren't buying it. Reckon people are still recovering from their beloved Archies' role in live-action reboot series, Riverdale.
