Netflix said the new series is “less about what you already know, and more about how it all started.”<\/p>\n
Netflix said: “Half a century, three theatrical films, and more than a dozen animated series later, Scooby-Doo remains one of pop culture\u2019s most recognisable and entertaining characters.<\/p>\n
“But few people know how the cowardly dog and his mystery-solving gang first got together.”<\/p>\n
The new series will see the gang “going back to the beginning, and the terrifying case that started it all,” it added.<\/p>\n
A photo of the four main cast members was also posted on the Netflix Instagram account.<\/p>\n
