Jeepers! Your favorite mystery solving teenagers are back in an all-new, live-action feature length movie! Warner Bros. Home Entertainment will release Daphne & Velma on Digital, Blu-ray and DVD on May 22, 2018. The film stars Sarah Jeffery (Disney's "Descendants: Wicked World") and Sarah Gilman (ABC's “Last Man Standing”), and is produced by Ashley Tisdale and Jennifer Tisdale’s Blondie Girl Productions. Daphne & Velma will carry a suggested retail price of $19.98 for the DVD and $24.98 for the Blu-ray.
State of the art robots and high-tech gadgets are common sights at Ridge Valley High, an innovative center of learning for some of the brightest minds in the country, including new transfer student, the bright & optimistic Daphne Blake (Sarah Jeffery) who is excited to finally go to school with her online bestie, the whip-smart & analytical Velma Dinkley (Sarah Gilman). But not everything is as innocent as it seems as mysterious disappearances begin to plague the top-performing students on campus. Once cheery and full of life, kids now appear in a “zombiefied” state - lifeless and shells of themselves. Can Daphne and Velma learn to work together and save the students or will they become the next victims? Get ready for thrills and laughs as we follow the first adventures of Mystery Inc.’s fierce female duo. Daphne and Velma, the smart and resourceful women of Scooby-Doo fame, come to life in this all-new mystery,” said Mary Ellen Thomas, WBHE, Vice President, TV Marketing, Family & Animation. “Young girls will be delighted to discover how these clever heroines come together for their very first mystery demonstrating that no mystery is too big for these “meddling” girls to solve!”
“Daphne & Velma” is produced by Blue Ribbon Content and Blondie Girl Productions with Production Services provided by Lifeboat Productions Inc. Ashley Tisdale (Young & Hungry), Jennifer Tisdale (Her Universe Fashion Show), Amy Kim (Confess, Chosen), Jaime Burke (Cassandra French’s Finishing School, Quantum Break) and Suzi Yoonessi (Olive and Mochha: First Kiss) serve as producers, with Yoonessi also directing from a script written by Kyle Mack & Caitlin Meares.

Doesn't this look like a fun addition to your movie collection? It's absolutely a must-have for any Scooby fans out there!
OUR THOUGHTS :
This movie was really well done, and allows viewers to get to know Velma and Daphne back in their high school days, before they became part of the Mystery, Inc. gang.
No, there's no Scooby, Fred, or Shaggy to be seen, but that's okay. The gals hold up this film all on their own. It was a lot of fun watching this classic friendship develop, and seeing them solve some mysteries all on their own. The acting was on point, as both characters were very true to previous shows, films, etc. Velma is the lovable, intelligent, yet often misunderstood "nerdy girl". Daphne was the perfect "Cool Kid", with an inquisitive nature. My entire family loved this movie, especially my 8 year old, spectacled daughter. She, too, is a smart cookie, and she absolutely adores seeing smart girls like Velma in leadership roles. I won't give away any spoilers, but it was definitely a treat seeing the villain unmasked, as the day is saved by teamwork and GIRL POWER~!
