《圣女魔咒 Charmed》是根据WB同名大热剧所重启,新版由《处女情缘 Jane the Virgin》的Jessica O’Toole及Amy Rardin执笔,背景会用现代时间线,讲述住在大学镇上的三姐妹Macy﹑Mel及Madison发现自己原来是女巫。
Madeleine Mantock饰演Macy,实用主义﹑有动力﹑有才华的遗传学家,但当发现超自然是真实存在后,这使得她眼界大开,拥有念动力。Melonie Diaz饰演Mel,她是个充满激情﹑直言无讳的行动主义分子,因为母亲死亡而失去了方向,拥有时间停止能力。Sarah Jeffery饰演最年轻的大学新生Madison,认为巫术会影响她加入联谊会,拥有读心能力。
Rupert Evans饰演英俊﹑浮夸的教授Harry,同时他亦是女巫三姐妹的「Whitelighter」。在母剧设定「Whitelighter」是类似守护天使般的角色,负责指导女巫。Ser’Darius Blain饰演Galvin,他是个理想男友﹑成熟幽默的他为了女友Macy的理想搬到新地方。他自己是位电影制片人,虽有抱负但未找到好时机。
Charlie Gillespie饰演Brian,Madison的高校男友,但他依然很喜欢Madison;Ellen Tamaki饰演Hilltowne警局的警探Nico,与三女巫之一的感情关系将影响到调查案件。
原版剧在WB播了八季,由Holly Marie Combs﹑Alyssa Milano﹑Rose McGowan(代替第三季离开的Shannen Doherty)主演,过去曾有类似模式的剧集《东镇女巫 Eastwick》﹑《东区女巫 Witches Of East End》,但谈不上成功。

Their solution was extraordinary,” reads the logline. “In a top-secret operation, a small team of British Customs employees were sent undercover. Their task – to infiltrate Britain’s most dangerous drug gangs.” “They were not trained spies. These were ordinary men and women, plucked from ordinary lives around the U.K, put through a basic training regime then told to build new identities in the criminal underworld. These identities were called Legends.
