The CW developing live-action Powerpuff Girls sequel series
-----------------------------------------------------------
Just over a year after its attempted reboot series came to an
end at Cartoon Network, Variety has brought word that The CW
is developing a live-action sequel series to the iconic
animated superhero comedy The Powerpuff Girls.

The new series, which is being developed by writers and
executive producers Heather Regnier (iZombie) and Diablo Cody
(Jennifer's Body), will see the titular trio as disillusioned
twentysomethings who resent having spent their entire
childhood fighting crime and struggling to reunite as the
world needs them more than ever.

Alongside Regnier and Cody, the project will be executive
produced by Greg Berlanti (Arrowverse), Sarah Schechter and
David Madden via Berlanti Productions with Warner Bros.
Television set to produce the project. Regnier is attached to
the studio via an overall deal, with previous credits for
WBTV including Falling Skies, iZombie and the Veronica Mars 
revival at Hulu, as well as working on Showtime's SMILF and
Fox's Sleepy Hollow.

The Powerpuff Girls was created by Craig McCracken and debuted
in 1998, centering on Professor Utonium as, in an attempt to
create the perfect little girl, ends up creating the titular
trio Blossom, Bubbles and Buttercup from the combination of
sugar, spice, everything nice and the mysterious Chemical X.
The series received rave reviews over the course of its
six-season run and was broken up with a theatrical movie in
2002, which was a modest critical and commercial success.

Cartoon Network rebooted the series in 2016 without the
involvement of McCracken or the original voice cast and
received generally mixed reviews from critics and audiences
alike and some controversy for the mishandling of transgender
themes in an episode in the first season.

One thing I was surprised to discover when I was persuing Powerpuff video
for my niece is that there was:

Powerpuff Girls Z (Japanese: Z, Hepburn: Demashita! Pawapafu
Gruzu Zetto, lit. They're Here! Powerpuff Girls Z) is a Japanese
magical girl anime series directed by Megumu Ishiguro

It was..
