Netflix has released first-look material for its planned live-action remake of Scooby-Doo, prompting criticism from some viewers. According to the reports, several fans react to casting choices shown in the images—particularly the dog actor portrayed as Scooby-Doo—expressing that it does not look like the character they associate with the franchise. One complaint highlighted across coverage is the sentiment that “that’s not Scooby,” with commenters pointing to differences in appearance compared with the original animated dog. The reporting indicates the backlash is focused on the visual portrayal of the four-legged role rather than other aspects of the production. While Netflix has not been described in these sources as addressing the criticism, the coverage frames the reaction as immediate and concentrated around the early, publicly shared visuals. The remake is therefore facing early fan pushback as audiences assess how closely the new version will match the established look and identity of Scooby-Doo from previous iterations.
