Velma Scooby-Doo Spinoff First Image Reveals Gory, Very Adult Cartoon
The first official image from Scooby-Doo's Velma spin-off reveals how adult and gory the animated series will be. Velma Dinkley is one of the members of the iconic fivesome from the Scooby-Doo franchise, which began with the 1969 Hanna-Barbera cartoon series Scooby-Doo, Where Are You!. She is typically depicted wearing an orange turtleneck sweater over a pleated red skirt. While she is the most intelligent member of the Scooby Gang and is frequently instrumental in solving mysteries, she has a habit of losing her glasses, rendering her temporarily unable to see.
In February 2021, Warner Bros announced that the character would be getting an animated spin-off titled Velma on HBO Max. The series will follow the character's origin story before she ever encountered Scooby-Doo or the Mystery Machine, with The Office writer and star Mindy Kaling voicing the character, who is now of South Asian descent. She is also executive producing with Charlie Grandy, Howard Klein, and Sam Register.

Today, Kaling spoke at a presentation about Velma at the Warner Bros Discovery Upfront event. She also shared a first-look image from the series captured by Variety. The photo shows Velma in a locker room, discovering a grisly murder scene, complete with a body with the top of its skull cut off and its brain removed. It's a shocking sight for any fan familiar with the typical content of a Scooby-Doo episode. Check out a photograph of the Velma still, taken at the presentation, below:
