Deadline has confirmed that Banks will voice the character of Pebbles, while Stephen Root, Amy Sedaris, Nicole Byer, Joe Lo Truglio, and Manny Jacinto will also lend their voices to the characters of Fred, Wilma, Betty, Barney, and Bamm-Bamm, respectively.
Bedrock, which has Lindsay Kerns as its writer and Elizabeth Banks as both the voice of grown-up Pebbles and executive producer, will revisit the Flintstones twenty years after the original animated series, depicting Fred nearing retirement and Pebbles in her twenties starting her own professional journey.

Banks and Max Handelman from Brownstone Productions, along with Sam Register and the Warner Bros. Television Group, serve as executive producers for a project that originates from Warner Bros. Animation and Fox Entertainment. “The Flintstones is the first family of primetime animation,” said Warner Bros. Animation Executive Vice President Peter Girardi. “Elizabeth and Lindsay have a brilliant take on these characters, and Fox and Brownstone are the perfect partners to bring them back to primetime. This is going to rock (sorry).”
