Can you believe that it’s been 20 years since “The Craft” was released?
When Sony announced they were remaking the occult teen thriller last May, the news of this reboot irked many die hard fans. However, in talking with HitFix, producer Douglas Wick says that calling the upcoming film a remake isn’t quite right.
From what we know, the main story in the reboot will not revolve around the original coven of witches, but will instead introduce 4 new characters. However, the movie will make some reference to the players and events from the previous film.
“Here are some young women who once again discover the power of magic, and we explore their emotional lives, their wants, their fears, their longings, as they become empowered. So you know, the same way you use a war movie to explore the psyche of men, you get to create a heightened world to explore the psyche of these women,” said Wick.

It’s probably a good call that they’re presenting this supernatural film as an indirect sequel instead of a remake. We’ll keep you posted as more information start to unfold.
