So get your different colored sneakers on, because you're going to need all the Punky Power when you meet this cast.

Here's everything you need to know about the cast and characters of Punky Brewster.

Soleil Moon Frye as Penelope "Punky" Brewster

Punky is the same character that you know and love from the original series. Only now she's all grown up and ready to take on the world as a single mom. Since the ending of the original show, she became a photographer and still keeps holding on to that Punky Power and hopes to pass it on to her kids.

Soleil is best known for her role as Punky Brewster in the original series of the same name. She also played Roxie King in Sabrina the Teenage Witch.

Cherie Johnson as Cherie

Cherie is Punky's BFF since they were kids. She's still there for Punky no matter what she needs, especially as she starts to put herself out there again. Cherie works in the foster home where Izzy lives.

Cherie is also reprising her role from the original series. She also played Maxine Johnson in the hit TV show Family Matters.

Freddie Prinze Jr. as Travis

Travis is Punky's ex-husband. He's a guitarist in a band so he's on the road pretty often. However, he still has a lot of love for Punky and his children.

Freddie Prinze Jr. is known for his roles as Ray Bronson in the I Know What You Did Last Summer film series and bringing to life Fred Jones in the live-action Scooby-Doo film series.

Noah Cottrell as Diego

The middle child out of Punky's children, Diego was adopted alongside his biological little brother Daniel. He is a lot more messy and free-spirited than his brother, which sometimes causes them to butt heads. However, he is very protective of his family. Diego is also a hockey player.

Oliver De Los Santos as Daniel

Daniel is the youngest of Punky's kids. He is a lot more clean than his older brother and loves to play the piano. He spends a lot of time exploring who he is and what he likes.
