Chloe Bennet Leaves POWERPUFF Due to Schedule Conflicts

For some reason, The CW is determined to make a dark and gritty live-action version of The Powerpuff Girls, currently titled Powerpuff. A few months ago, The CW decided to redevelop and reshoot the pilot for the show. Naturally, this meant a change of scheduling, and that has apparently not worked for one of the stars. Chloe Bennet was set to lead the series as Blossom, but according to Variety, she has had to step down due to scheduling conflicts. Dove Cameron and Yana Perrault are still attached to Powerpuff though, as Bubbles and Buttercup, respectively. Blossom in the original pilot was described as follows:

Though she was a spunky, conscientious, Little-Miss-Perfect child who holds several advanced degrees, Blossom has repressed kiddie-superhero trauma that has left her feeling anxious and reclusive, and she aims to become a leader again, this time on her own terms.

It’s unclear if they’ll keep this description or if it’s getting reworked too. Other cast members for Powerpuff include Donald Faison as Professor Drake Utonium, Nicholas Podany as Joseph “Jojo” Mondel Jr. (the show’s take on the infamous Mojo Jojo), and Robyn Lively as Sara Bellum, although the talks to keep these cast members are apparently ongoing. Who do you think should take over as Blossom?
