Deadline is reporting that The 100 star Tati Gabrielle has signed on to Netflix’s upcoming reboot of Sabrina the Teenage Witch, where she’ll portray Sabrina’s arch enemy Prudence.
A student at the Academy of Unseen Arts and the de facto leader of a trio of witches known as the Weird Sisters, Prudence is described as “beautiful and cunning, and nursing a deep, personal, and possibly life-threatening grudge against Sabrina.”
The as-yet-untitled series, based upon Archie’s The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina comic book series, features a cast that includes Kiernan Shipka (Mad Men) as Sabrina, Jaz Sinclair (Slender Man) as Rosalind Walker, Lucy Davis (Wonder Woman) as Aunt Hilda, Miranda Otto (Lord of the Rings) as Aunt Zelda, Ross Lynch (My Friend Dahmer) as Harvey Kinkle, Richard Coyle (The Collection) as Father Blackwood , Bronson Pinchot (Perfect Strangers) as Principal George Hawthorne, Michelle Gomez (Doctor Who) as Mary Wardell and newcomer Chance Perdomo as Ambrose.
The Untitled Sabrina Project imagines the origin and adventures of Sabrina the Teenage Witch as a dark coming-of-age story that traffics in horror, the occult and, of course, witchcraft. Tonally in the vein of Rosemary’s Baby and The Exorcist, this adaptation finds Sabrina wrestling to reconcile her dual nature — half-witch, half-mortal — while standing against the evil forces that threaten her, her family and the daylight world humans inhabit.
