HBO Max's Velma - What We Know So Far

"Velma" doesn't have a set release date yet, but it has been announced by HBO Max that it will come out in 2023. It has already been confirmed to have a 10-episode first season.

The series is likely to premiere in the first half of the year, thus explaining the release of a teaser by HBO Max. The series was announced in February 2021 (via Variety), and by comparison, the Elizabeth Olsen miniseries "Love & Death" was announced in May 2021 (per Deadline). Based on the teaser released a couple of weeks ago, it appears that "Love & Death" has shot enough material to be able to formulate a teaser, which means that "Velma" is also similarly further along in its development cycle, despite the later announcement.

Furthermore, animation is not dependent on shooting schedules, which gives it an easier production window, as the animators can work independently from the voice performers. The combination of these factors suggests that we're likely to see "Velma" on HBO Max before June 2023, but that is merely a guess.
