We have some casting news for you today for the upcoming reboot of the film The Craft. Blumhouse tweeted out the cast list of the four girls who will star as the teenage coven. The girls are Cailee Spaeny (Bad Times at the El Royal), Gideon Adlon (Blockers), Lovie Simone (Greenleaf), and Zoey Luna (Pose). All these girls are pretty young up and comers, so I don’t know a lot of their work yet, besides that Spaeny played a pretty weird and annoying young lady in Bad Times at the El Royal.
I liked the original 1996 version of The Craft with Robin Tunney, Fairuza Balk, Neve Campbell, and Rachel True, but that was probably because I was 12 when it came out, and I was trying very hard to be dark and weird and shocking at that age. I’m not sure it would hold up at this point. But it can give a new wave of annoying teenagers something to pretend to be into. You know, something fun, like the occult.
The Craft is in pre-production, but we will keep you updated on the details as they come. Are you interested in this remake?
