Richie Rich is coming back to TV in a live-action series on Netflix according to USA TODAY(read the article here). Netflix has ordered the show from Awesomeness TV.
In order to make this series different from other previous incarnations Richie will invent a new green technology that will make him a billionaire.
There were other incarnations of Richie Rich including a comic, cartoon, and a movie starring McCaulay Culkin in 1994. In each incarnation Richie inherited his wealth from his parents.
Richie will be played by Jake Brennan (Dark Skies) and debut on Netflix in 2015.
This show will also be produced by Awesomeness TV CEO, Brian Robbins who has produced Smallville, One Tree Hill, and All That.
I grew up on the Richie Rich cartoon from the 1980's so it's nice to see another property being revived for a new generation.
