Sony Enchanted With "Sabrina The Teen-Age Witch"

According to reports, Sony is planning an 'edgy' live-action adaptation of Archie Comics' "Sabrina The Teenage Witch".



Premise will reportedly be an 'origin' story about a young girl coming to terms with her supernatural powers.

The 'Sabrina' character debuted in Archie Comics' "Madhouse" title, before becoming a regular in the comic book series, "Archie's TV Laugh-Out", published from 1969 to 1985.

The character then received her own title, "Sabrina The Teenage Witch", published from 1971 to 1983.


In 1970, CBS debuted a Filmation animated "Sabrina', that aired for 4 seasons, including shorts featuring the monstrous 'Groovie Goolies'.

In 1996, the comic book was adapted into a live-action MOW, followed by the "Sabrina, the Teenage Witch" TV series, airing for 7 seasons, starring actress Melissa Joan Hart as Sabrina.
