On December 15, 2002, ABC aired ''[[Nancy Drew (2002 film)|Nancy Drew]]'', starring [[Maggie Lawson]] and produced by [[Lawrence Bender]]. The movie was intended to be a pilot for a possible weekly series, which would see Nancy and her friends going off to college in a modern setting and Nancy pursuing a journalism degree. Like the 1930s films, this pilot also took a more mature turn, with the mystery being a drug bust and Nancy having a falling out with her father. The pilot aired as part of the ''Wonderful World of Disney'' series, with additional scripts being ordered and production contingent on the movie's ratings and reception. The series was passed at ABC, and [[UPN]] also passed following Lawson being cast in another ABC series.<ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.enquirer.com/editions/2002/12/13/tem_1213robbie.html|author=Harris, Beth|title=No mystery: Actress detects similarity with Nancy Drew|date=December 13, 2002|agency=Associated Press}}</ref>
