It is not clear yet what this new storyline for kid adventurer Jonny Quest's big screen adventure will be, according to The Hollywood Reporter.



A prior film adaptation starring Zac Efron as Quest and Dwayne Johnson as bodyguard Race Bannon was announced in 2009, only for development to stall. Hanna-Barbera originally aired the animated series for a single season in 1964, but syndication kept the series popular in the ensuing decades.



The original series followed Jonny, his father Dr Benton Quest and a small crew on adventures around the world as they battled evildoers.



Jonny Quest was later revived in New Adventures and Real Adventures spin-offs in the 1980s and 1990s. Computer games, a comic book series and home video films followed.
