Holly Marie Combs is calling for a ceasefire after this week's witchy feud. Members of the original Charmed cast have been in a social media war of words with the reboot's star, Sarah Jeffery. On Monday, Jeffery reacted to a video that showed Charmed actress Rose McGowan saying the new CW show "sucks." The 24-year-old, who plays Maggie Vera, called out McGowan and Combs for "putting down other Woc," adding, "I would be embarrassed to behave this way." Combs shot back on Tuesday and said Jeffery was spewing "bulls--t." The 46-year-old actress, who played Piper Halliwell from 1998 to 2006, wrote on...

Rose McGowan is setting the record straight on her Charmed reboot criticism. The 47-year-old actress addressed Sarah Jeffery's viral tweets in a post shared to Instagram on Wednesday, Oct. 14. Earlier this week, Jeffery, who plays Maggie Vera on the reboot, called out McGowan and Holly Marie Combs for the remarks they made about The CW series. In response to a video posted to social media—in which McGowan could be heard saying the show "sucks" and Combs could be seen laughing—the 24-year-old actress described the duo's actions as "pathetic," noting she hopes "they find happiness elsewhere, and not in the form of putting down other...

"I would be embarrassed to behave this way," said Jeffery, who has appeared as Maggie Vera on the CW reboot since 2018. She added that McGowan and Combs should "find happiness elsewhere and not in the form of putting down other Woc." Combs, who was in the original series from...

Rose McGowan and Holly Marie Combs could learn a lesson or two from their Charmed successor, Sarah Jeffery. Sarah spoke out on Twitter after seeing the actresses, who originally starred in Charmed from 1998 to 2006, criticize The CW reboot on numerous occasions. She told her fans, "You know, I saw this earlier and I refrained from saying anything. I thought, better to just let them shout into the abyss. But I do want to say, I find it sad and quite frankly pathetic to see grown women behaving this way." The 24-year-old, who stars as Maggie Vera on the reboot, added that she hopes Holly and Rose "find happiness elsewhere and not in the form of putting down other...

After a long hiatus, the Charmed Ones are finally back in action!
On Charmed (2018) Season 2 Episode 9, Maggie and Mel adjust to life with having powers again, while Macy uses her womanly charm to do her part to protect her family.
After weeks of being powerless, it was nice to watch Mel and Maggie growing into their new powers.
I love that Mel's powers are not only back and better than ever, but they have evolved. In addition to freezing things, she can now speed up molecules to heat things up.
Maggie's new ability to see the future when she touches personal items is incredibly reminiscent of Phoebe's ability to do the same in the Og series.
There's no real explanation as to why Macy doesn't have her powers back yet like her sisters, but I predict that it has something to do with the feelings she's suppressing for Dark Harry.

Two decades later, the premise of the show may be the same, but the stories being told are taking on new meanings in a radically changed climate.

(Warning: This post contains spoilers for Sunday’s series premiere of The CW’s “Charmed” reboot — and decades-old spoilers for the original series.)
Something wicked this way came to The CW Sunday: the series premiere of the network’s “Charmed” reboot.
The magical IP’s return to the small screen was eagerly anticipated by viewers excited to see a new tale of sisterhood — and not to so eagerly by die-hard fans of the series starring Shannen Doherty, Holly Marie Combs, Alyssa Milano, and later Rose McGowan, which ran on the now-defunct WB network from 1998-2006.

The Power of Three was reconstituted Sunday as a new trio of young women discovered a magical legacy and took down a sexual predator — who also happened to be an actual demon.
The series premiere of Charmed introduced viewers to Mel and Maggie Vera, two very different sisters living with their stressed-out mom in Hilltowne — or “Helltown,” as the locals call it — a small college town in… I want to say Michigan? Anyway, from the moment we met the Vera family, there was drama. Maggie was sneaking out to an ill-themed sorority party in her sister’s combat boots, Mel...

While this was not her most notorious […]

Madeleine Mantock will be playing Macy Vaughn on Charmed. The reboot of the cultural phenomenon has been much discussed and is highly anticipated.
She was joined by her already highly seasoned costars as they worked the press room alone at New York Comic-Con.
Mantock plays the eldest of three magical sisters on the reboot, but as the series begins, she's the only one with that knowledge.
Macy appears in the lives of her two younger sisters live without warning, and similarly, the three together will discover they are witches.

The culture of the world in which the CW’s reboot of “Charmed” is being written, as well as the cultural backgrounds of its three Latinx lead characters, will heavily influence the new supernatural drama.
“We have a real Latinx witch in our writers’ room,” executive producer Amy Rardin said at the Paley Fall TV Preview in Beverly Hills, Calif. Saturday. “Every culture has their own witchcraft traditions, and we really wanted to explore not just from a Salem witchcraft but all kinds of different witchcraft that happens all around the world.”
The reboot will showcase brujería, Latinx witchcraft, as the sisters explore the magical abilities they discover they have in the series premiere. For audiences familiar with the late-1990s version of the show, there will be a unique power among this new group of sisters. Jeffrey’s character, Maggie Vera, will be able to read minds.

Exactly two decades after the Halliwell sisters first Charmed television audiences, The CW is hoping to recreate that magic with a “fierce, funny, feminist reboot” of the still-popular supernatural saga.
Currently filming in Vancouver, this pilot — which has not officially been ordered to series — follows Macy (played by The Tomorrow People‘s Madeleine Mantock), Mel (The Breaks‘ Melonie Diaz) and Maggie Vera (Descendants‘ Sarah Jeffery), “three sisters in a college town who discover they are witches.”
Despite the obvious differences you’d expect from an entirely new show, The CW’s Charmed at least appears to follow the rules of the original series,...
