OlderSharkboy & Lavagirl Are Back For 'We Can Be Heroes' But Without Taylor Lautner!
Sharkboy and Lavagirl are making their return in the all new sequel We Can Be Heroes!
Original star Taylor Dooley returns as Lavagirl, while JJ Dashnaw takes over the role of Sharkboy, originally played by Taylor Lautner – and now their parents.
Here’s a synopsis: When alien invaders kidnap Earth’s superheroes, their children must team up and learn to work together if they want to save their parents and the world.
“Wanna feel old? Sharkboy and Lavagirl are parents now (and their daughter is played by Vivien Lyra Blair aka Girl from BIRD BOX),” Netflix wrote on Twitter.
The Adventures of Sharkboy and Lavagirl first premiered in 2005, and you can actually stream it on Netflix!
We Can Be Heroes, premiering on New Year’s Day (January 1), also stars Priyanka Chopra, Christian Slater, Pedro Pascal, Boyd Holbrook, Vivien Blair, and Haley Reinhart, as well as Akira Akbar, Brittany Perry-Russell, Dylan Henry Lau, Hala Finley, Isaiah Russell-Bailey, Lotus Blossom, Quinton Johnson and YaYa Gosselin.

Last time I checked Taylor Lautner hasn’t had a huge acting role since 2012. Why couldn’t he do Sharkboy and Lavagirl? pic.twitter.com/8DDbGzOefY
