The Powerpuff Girls live-action reboot is in production, and newly released set photos have fans wondering what other classic characters we can expect to see from the original cartoon. Glamorous down to the tips of his thigh-high boots and lobster claws, His Infernal Majesty, aka HIM, is one of the most notable Powerpuff Girls characters yet to be cast for the show. So, we decided to take a deep dive into the demonic villain’s history with the superheroes to mentally prepare ourselves, just in case he chooses to dazzle us with his evil presence all over again.
So far, The CW has confirmed that the cast will feature Chloe Bennet as Blossom, Dove Cameron as Bubbles, Yana Perrault as Buttercup, Donald Faison as Professor Utonium, Robyn Lively as Miss Bellum, and Nicholas Podany as Mojo Jojo. There’s no word yet on whether HIM will make it into the live-action series, especially since the Powerpuff Girls have such a wide range of villains to choose from. But, we have to admit, the makeup and costume design potential alone are enough to make us cross our fingers that he’ll appear in the reboot. Relive your childhood and read through five reasons we need to see HIM in the live-action series ahead.
