The CW are working on a live action reboot of The Powerpuff Girls.

However, this time the superheroes are all grown up, resenting the fact that they lost their childhood to fighting villains.

The original series

The original animated series, created by Craig McCracken, ran from 1998 to 2005 on Cartoon Network.

It follows three young girls named Blossom, Bubbles, and Buttercup.

They use their superpowers to protect the people of Townsville from evil villains.

A reboot of the original animated series premiered on Cartoon Network in 2016.

However, they used completely different voice actors for the main roles.

They only wrapped up the reboot's third season last summer.
