The CW is bringing The Powerpuff Girls to live-action. Last week we had some on-set photos that leaked showing off the girls. This week, The CW gave us the details about all things Powerpuff. Check out the first official image of the girls!
Here are the official character descriptions of the Powerpuff Girls:
- CHLOE BENNET as BLOSSOM UTONIUM: Though she was a spunky, conscientious, Little-Miss-Perfect child who holds several advanced degrees, Blossom’s repressed kiddie-superhero trauma has left her feeling anxious and reclusive, and she aims to become a leader again — this time on her own terms.
- DOVE CAMERON as BUBBLES UTONIUM: Bubbles’ sweet-girl disposition won America’s hearts as a child. She still sparkles as an adult, but her charming exterior belies an unexpected toughness and wit. She’s initially more interested inrecapturing her fame than saving the world, but she just might surprise us and herself.
- YANA PERRAULT as BUTTERCUP UTONIUM: Buttercup was the rebellious badass of The Powerpuff Girls in its heyday. More sensitive than her tough exterior suggests, Buttercup has spent her adulthood trying to shed her Powerpuff Girl identity and live an anonymous life.
In addition to those three ladies, we can also look forward to Donald Faison as Professor Utonium and Robyn Lively as Sara Bellum.
Diablo Cody and Heather Regnier have the script handled with Maggie Kiley directing. The show airs on The CW and is in the middle of filming it’s first season. There is no current release date.
