American animator Craig McCracken is set to develop reboots of "Foster’s Home for Imaginary Friends" and "The Powerpuff Girls" at Hanna-Barbera Studios.
The animator originally created both series that became a staple for every '90s kid.
The 2004 cartoon series "Foster’s Home" focused on building friendships and the importance of friends set in Madame Foster’s home where imaginary friends, who either get lost or the kids outgrow them, stay.
The original series ran for six seasons on Cartoon Network earning many awards and receiving critical acclaim. During its run, the show earned six Emmy awards.
The show featured fan-favorite characters like Mac voiced by Sean Marquette, Wilt voiced by Phil LaMarr, Eduardo voiced by Tom Kenny, Coco voiced by Candi Milo, and Frankie voiced by Grey DeLisle.
The reboot will return as an original preschool animated series featuring a whole new cast of preschool-aged imaginary friends who are just as silly and playful as the original bunch.
The 1998 cartoon series "The Powerpuff Girls" followed Blossom, Bubbles, and Buttercup three super-powered pre-school girls, created by Professor Utonium, as they strive to save their town from various threats.
The original series earned two Emmy Awards and countless animation honors throughout its 78-episode run.
It featured Cathy Cavadini as Blossom, Tara Strong as Bubbles, and E. G. Daily as Buttercup.
The reboot will revisit and expand upon the world of the original series as Blossom, Bubbles, and Buttercup face off against a gallery of villains comprised of familiar foes and new threats.
The development of both projects at the studio will be overseen by Sarah Fell, VP, Original Kids, and Family Animation.
