Press conference w/ Mindy Kaling: Star/Executive Producer Charlie Grandy: Showrunner

Otakus & Geeks got to cover the New York Comic Con 2022 - Velma Press Conference - with Emmy® nominee Mindy Kaling about her new adult animated series premiering in 2023 on HBO Max.

Catch Mindy and show-runner Charlie Grandy discuss making the series adult-themed and the choice to make Velma South-Asian and the direction of representation. VELMA is an adult animated comedy series telling the origin story of Velma Dinkley, the unsung and underappreciated brains of the Scooby-Doo Mystery Inc. gang. An original and humorous spin that unmasks the complex and colorful past of one of America’s most beloved mystery solvers, executive producer Mindy Kaling will voice the titular character. Charlie Grandy, Howard Klein and Sam Register also serve as executive producers. VELMA is produced by Warner Bros. Animation.
