Netflix Finds its Sabrina in Kiernan Shipka

The Untilted Sabrina show has finally found its Sabrina Spellman. Mad Men actress Kiernan Shipka will be playing the spell-binding witch.

The show is described as in the vein of Rosemary’s Baby and The Exorcist and finds Sabrina wrestling to reconcile her dual nature as a half-witch, half-mortal while fighting the evil forces that threaten her, her family and the daylight world humans inhabit.

The untitled drama’s Sabrina Spellman is described as an empowered young woman, half-human, half-witch, who is just beginning her dark education as a sorceress, even as she tries to maintain a normal life as a sophomore at Baxter High. Intelligent, compassionate and brave to the point of recklessness, Sabrina is all that stands between us and the forces of darkness that threaten our world.

The show was given a straight to 2 Season order by Netflix. Production on the series will begin later this year. No word on when it will be released, but we are hoping it will be released around Halloween time.
