by Dana Abercrombie0

Fans across the country are jumping on TikTok’s #ScoobDance challenge, launched May 3rd by 14-year-old TikTok celebrity dancer Jalaiah Harmon with original music from Movers+Shakers, to celebrate the upcoming May 15th Home Premiere of the animated feature film SCOOB!

Sharing content and making their own videos, creative choreographers, families, dogs, and people who just love to dance on the internet got into the spirit with Scooby-Doo and Jalaiah or created their own original moves to the tune of more than a half billion views in less than two days and have now crossed an amazing 1 billion—and counting —in just over three days.

There’s still time to join the fun and invite yourself to the party, as TikTok’s #ScoobDance challenge runs through May 8th.

On May 15 the brand new, fully animated, full-length action adventure SCOOB! will be available for a 48-hour rental via Premium Video On Demand for $19.99, or premium digital ownership for $24.99, beginning on Friday, May 15th.

SCOOB! reveals the never-before-told story of Scooby’s origins. It shows how one of history’s most famous friendships began when an adorable, homeless puppy met a lonesome young boy named Shaggy, and how the two of them joined forces with aspiring young detectives Fred, Velma and Daphne to become the celebrated Mystery Inc. Now, with hundreds of cases solved and adventures shared, Scooby and the gang face the biggest and most challenging mystery of their careers: a plot that will unleash the legendary ghost dog Cerberus upon the world.

Former genius and a woman of mystery and power, whose power is exceeded only by her mystery, Dana Abercrombie has been watching movies since birth (yes birth...we did say "genius"). Despite her secret desire of wanting to give it all up to become a gorgeous billionaire, Dana is most passionate politics about movies often times getting in many heated debates resulting in being thrown out of many gatherings. Despite having a degree in English AND Journalism (multi-tasking FTW!) from the University at Albany-SUNY, she is currently interested in perusing a degree at Yale Law School, because one should never give up on a dream of becoming a gorgeous billionaire...and knowing how to sue someone as a result of those heated debates.
