Nancy Drew is a 2002 American television film directed by James Frawley and written by Ami Canaan Mann.
It stars Maggie Lawson as teen sleuth Nancy Drew, who heads off to college and finds yet another mystery to solve.

[5] In May, ABC announced it wouldn't include Nancy Drew on the fall 2002 schedule, instead deciding to air it as a part of The Wonderful World of Walt Disney, to see how it would do for a possible mid-season replacement.
The plucky heroine from the books of Mildred Wirt Benson, aka Caroline Keene, just doesn't have the same relevance she once did, and while ABC's updated version for the Wonderful World of Disney is a slick, earnest effort, it's way out of place.
