Leigh Janiak will be directing The Craft reboot for Sony, who recently directed 2014’s Honeymoon, which starred Game of Thrones actress Rose Leslie. While many fans of the witchcraft movie are probably screaming at their monitors right now, it might be the perfect time to bring the witches back.

The Craft was an excellent cult film based around four witches that start allowing their lives to get out of hand. ’90s nostalgia is in full-force right now, and studios are bound to start remaking more of these movies that were huge hits in the mid to late ’90s and at least The Craft was one of the better films.


As for Leigh Janiak directing the reboot, she’s definitely a solid choice for the film, and Janiak recently directed an episode of MTV’s new Scream series, which is another attempt at hitting on the ’90s nostalgia.

Fairuza Balks responds. She says she is not surprised they want to remake the movie.




and this meme

LMAO!

Smh. Damn them. The Craft >>>>>

urgh, why? its totally 90's, can't think in a modern version

The 90s impact >>>>>>

But NO ! I have no idea why they are doing this. The movie is a cult classic!

Watch them cast a bunch of cheesy disney look-a-likes and the film will have a low budget, tank, and be dragged by critics and the GP.

I'd be here for a true remake/sequel type. Like the storyline involves their children or girls from the same high school or something.

This film is such a CLASSIC. I'm on the fence. I'm pissed but I can see the value in a remake. It would be so interesting with the advancements in technology. And a new cast with a whole new vibe, and modern setting, would be great.

I would really be here for it if they included the original cast as the mothers of the new batch of girls.

I need Ariana to play Bonnie

Mess, I'm gonna support it, though. This movie is a 90's classic. Ugh, 90's films are everything.

Anyways, I hope it's at least decent.

Love the original, totally down for this

Right though. Not sure I am exactly sold on it, but I'd watch it.

Yes! That's exactly what I said!

Omg leave it ALONE!

Edit: Wait I just had a thought. I'm here for it if Azealia plays Rochelle

So where's the Charmed remake

I bind you Leigh Janiak from doing harm - harm against other people, and harm against Hollywood.

"The Craft" is one of my favourite movies, and I've always loved the idea of high school students participating in that witching kind of stuff. The original has a lot of 90s charm, which makes it such a fantastic film - but the story has a lot of potential to work today, as well. If they get the right cast and treat this as a quality project, it could be great.

Here's to hoping!

"Yes!" if its done right.

I agree except I don't think including the original cast is necessary.

Who's this generation's Fairuza Balk? I can't imagine anyone else in that part.

Hollywood has really ran out of ideas so now they have to **** up classics like Jem and The Craft.

The whole "withcraft" thing is so outdated though.

Only The Blair Witches and The Craft has made it's impact.

Not when Buffy and Charmed exist
