During the last e ;event dated Warner Bros. Discovery, the seriesVelma (the title in its original version) was revealed to the public.

A controversial spin-off
A first image of the show has been unveiled by Mindy Kaling, who really seems to care about this project. In addition to her role as executive producer, the actress will have the heavy task of playing Véra in the series. In the one and only image made public, we can see our investigator facing the mutilated body. of a young girl found in a locker room. Behind her, naked spectators watch the scene in awe.
HBO Max has announced; last February the project and described it as an adult comedy.In the wake of the reveal of the first visual, Scooby-Doo fans reacted. While some seem delighted to see this series project come to fruition, others criticize the choice to portray Véra with South Asian origins.
Remember that this is not the first time that Vera has been described as originating from an Asian country, to the image of what has been done in Scooby-Doo: The Mystery Begins or Scooby-Doo and the Lake Monster. the character is portrayed as having South Asian ancestry.
