What’s it about:
After the tragic death of their mother Marisol, three sisters in a college town are stunned to discover they are witches. Soon this powerful threesome must stand together to fight the everyday and supernatural battles that all modern witches must face: from vanquishing powerful demons to toppling the patriarchy..
Macy, Mel and Maggie Vera are similar to Prue, Piper and Phoebe Halliwell from the original CBS Charmed series, but there are modern twists.
Eldest sister Macy (Madeleine Mantock) is a geneticist who discovers she has telekinetic powers.
Middle sister Mel (Melonie Diaz) is a social justice warrior, graduate student in the women’s studies department of Hilltowne University and a lesbian who discovers she can freeze time.
Youngest sister Maggie (Sarah Jeffery) is a fun-loving freshman who discovers she can hear other people’s thoughts.
Sarah Jeffery addresses fans of original series who want the reboot to fail:
I will bite my tongue until my character/persona is challenged. No. You do NOT get to make calls about my ethnicity. You do not get to sweep my 7 YEARS of consistent work in this industry under the rug. We are fully capable and we are here. @Charmed_Oddity https://t.co/sQLqZLCJjz
