The show not only helped propelled Melissa Joan Hart to fame which helped her out of her Nickelodeon shell, it also gave us some insight on how modern-day witches lived their lives alongside a sassy, cursed talking cat named Salem Saberhagen.
Sabrina Spellman basically embodied what almost every teenage girl wanted to be – having magical powers at the tip of her fingers – literally.
Well, if you’ve been reminiscing about the good old days of Sabrina The Teenage Witch and wished that the show was still on air, Netflix will be making your dream come true but in a slightly different version.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, the online-streaming network has ordered a two-season, 20-episode series revolving around Sabrina The Teenage Witch.
The new show will be based on the Archie Comics graphic novel – The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina.
Netflix’s latest commission will have a darker approach than the 90s hit show and will have a similar vibe to Riverdale. Sabrina will have a “more horror-infused coming-of-age tale that deals with the occult and witchcraft influenced by the likes of Rosemary's Baby and The Exorcist.”
Wow, we love the sound of this new Sabrina with a darker twist and can’t wait to see how it turns out. But we do hope that they’ll maintain Salem’s character because honestly, no one can roast Sabrina or anyone better than that cursed cat.
No word yet on who will play the lead role of Sabrina, but we’ve heard rumours that Selena Gomez is one of the actresses who has been shortlisted. If it’s true, we hope she gets the role because hey, who wouldn’t want to watch Selena Gomez as a teenage witch?
