Casting is underway on The CW’s “feminist” reboot of Charmed, with Deadline reporting that Ser’Darius Blain (Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle) has become the first name to join the pilot from Jane the Virgin creator Jennie Snyder Urman.
Blain will play Galvin, who is described as “the ideal boyfriend — funny, mellow, in touch with his emotions, totally on board to follow his lady across the country for her dream job. An aspiring filmmaker, he has yet to catch the break he’s sure is just around the corner.”

The new Charmed is described as a “fierce, funny, feminist reboot of the original series which centers on three sisters in a college town who discover they are witches. Between vanquishing supernatural demons, tearing down the patriarchy, and maintaining familial bonds, a witch’s work is never done.”
Charmed originally ran on The WB for eight seasons between 1998 and 2006, and featured a cast that included Shannen Doherty, Holly Marie Combs, Alyssa Milano and Rose McGowan.
