A new trailer for the upcoming animated Scooby-Doo movie Scoob! has been released, hinting at a film that covers a long period of time and sends Shaggy and Scooby on an intergalactic adventure. The trailer flashes all the way back to Scooby and Shaggy's first meeting, showing how Scooby-Doo got his name, as well as the first meeting between Shaggy and the rest of Mystery Incorporated. It also features ghosts, robots, and aliens--it's not yet clear whether it will end with them pulling off a bad guy's mask, or if there are actual extraterrestrials involved. The voice actors who have traditionally voiced the characters have been replaced with Hollywood celebrities, with the exception of Frank Welker, who has played Scooby-Doo since 2002's A Scooby-Doo! Christmas and will reprise the role here. Shaggy is now played by Will Forte, Fred by Zac Efron, Daphne by Amanda Seyfried, and Velma by Gina Rodriguez. The film also stars Mark Wahlberg, Ken Jeong, and Tracy Morgan. Scoob! is due to release on May 15, 2020. It is the big-screen debut of director Tony Cervone, who previously directed Scooby-Doo! And Kiss: Rock and Roll Mystery, Tom and Jerry: Spy Quest, and The Flintstones & WWE: Stone Age Smackdown. The screenplay is written by Kelly Fremon Craig (The Edge of Seventeen, which she also directed) and Matt Lieberman (Playing With Fire, The Addams Family 2019).
