The Disney Channel is developing a live-action movie version of cartoon series Kim Possible.

It was confirmed on Wednesday when Disney asked its followers which actors they would like to see play teenage spy Kim.

There's no news of when it's set to hit our screens but it will be produced by the original animated series' creators.

And it's safe to say fans have already started constructing their dream cast.

As well as being loved by fans for its extremely catchy theme tune - and catch phrases like "Booyah" and "what's the sitch?" - Kim Possible was really successful.

The original series launched in 2002 and ran until 2007, and was nominated for an Emmy in 2003 for outstanding animated program.

It also inspired two animated Disney Channel movies - Kim Possible Movie: So the Drama, and Kim Possible: A Sitch in Time.

The typical high school girl saved the world from villains in her spare time and got alerts of trouble nearby sent to her beeper.

Fans are hoping Disney isn't tempted to ditch the beloved beeper for a smart phone.
