Scooby-Doo! and Krypto, Too! is a 2023 American animated direct-to-video mystery film produced by Warner Bros. Animation and DC Entertainment and distributed by Warner Bros. Home Entertainment. It is the thirty-eighth entry in the direct-to-video series of Scooby-Doo films.
Plot
With the Justice League's mysterious disappearance, Lois Lane and Jimmy Olsen investigate the Hall of Justice but are quickly chased out by a phantom, prompting them to call Mystery Inc. for help. En route to Metropolis, the gang discover that the city is overrun by villains as a result of the missing Justice League. Barely escaping to the Daily Planet, they meet up with Lois and Jimmy (who proclaims Daphne to be his girlfriend, despite her protests) and they explain the phantom situation to them. Touring the Hall of Justice, they also meet Lex Luthor, Mercy Graves, and Luthor's dog, Rex.
Suddenly, the phantom appears and menaces the gang, only to be fended off by a mysterious superpowered dog, who initiates a lockdown on the gang so the phantom can't escape. Trapped inside with Luthor and his associates, he introduces the dog to the gang as Krypto, Superman's pet dog who quickly becomes friends with Scooby-Doo. Continuing their investigation, the gang discovers there are more phantoms in the Hall of Justice. While Shaggy, Scooby, and Krypto raid the kitchen, which also serves as the holodeck, the former two accidentally summon holograms of the Legion of Doom, malfunctioning the control panel. Shaggy and Scooby distract the holograms long enough for Krypto to shut them down, only for the three of them to learn that Solomon Grundy has infiltrated the building, instigating a long chase against the gang.
After they manage to lose him, Velma figures out the truth behind the mystery and the gang leaves Luthor out of the plan to successfully trap the phantoms. The culprit is revealed to be Mercy, who explains her motives to convert the Hall of Justice into her very own supervillain headquarters behind Luthor's back after trapping the Justice League in the Phantom Zone using the projector, which explains the phantoms themselves. Before the gang can declare the mystery solved, Luthor suddenly hijacks Mercy's scheme, revealing that he knew about it all along and used it to cover up his own evil plans to rule Metropolis with an army of robots. Rex is also revealed to be a robot and fights Krypto over the Phantom Zone projector while the gang is preoccupied with Luthor and Mercy's army. Despite Rex having the advantage with kryptonite in his circuitry, Krypto eventually manages to come out victorious and uses the projector to trap the robot army and finally bring back the Justice League.
In the aftermath, Luthor and Mercy are arrested while Solomon Grundy is revealed to have been trying to befriend Scooby, albeit aggressively. With the case closed, Jimmy "breaks up" with Daphne and Scooby and Krypto share one last snack with the Flash.

Production
It was in development by 2022. In March 2023, it was alleged to be cancelled as tax write-off for parent company Warner Bros. Discovery's cost savings effort, and the movie was leaked online. On July 26, 2023, it was confirmed to not be cancelled, and a trailer was released on July 27, 2023 with a release date of September 26, 2023.
This marks the fourth time that original Scooby-Doo creators Joe Ruby and Ken Spears posthumously receive special credit following Scooby-Doo! The Sword and the Scoob, Straight Outta Nowhere: Scooby-Doo! Meets Courage the Cowardly Dog, and Trick or Treat Scooby-Doo!, due to their respective deaths in August and November 2020.
