Leading Ladies of ‘The Craft’ Will Reunite for the First Time Since 1996 at Monster Mania Convention!
Ready to feel old? It’s now been TWENTY THREE YEARS since the release of Andrew Fleming’s The Craft, which put together the stellar leading cast of Rachel True, Robin Tunney, Fairuza Balk and Neve Campbell as four outcast teenage girls who practice witchcraft. Over the years, particularly as ’90s nostalgia officially becomes a thing, there have been various Craft reunions on the convention scene, but to date, no con has brought all four actors together.
Criminal? Probably. But Monster Mania is fixing that oversight this year.
Rachel True announced on Twitter last night, “Happy to announce I’ll be joining The Craft witches at Monster Mania in March. Excited to see all the ladies together for 1st time since ‘96. Hopefully you’ll see us at other events too! Thank you all so very much for the love, support & positive vibes!!!”
This first-time-ever reunion will take place the weekend of March 8-10, in Cherry Hill, NJ!
Chris Columbus (Gremlins – writer, Home Alone – director) is headed back into the director’s chair for Thursday Murder Club, Amblin’s upcoming feature film adaptation of the same-titled novel written by Richard Osman. Variety first reported the news this morning.
It’s not a horror movie, mind you, but rather a star-studded murder-mystery. Think Rian Johnson’s Knives Out… only this particular murder-mystery is set in a retirement community!
Variety details, “The book, released in 2020, tells the story of four septuagenarian friends who live in a retirement community and solve cold cases for fun. When a shady property developer is found dead, the four find themselves in the middle of their first live crime.”
Helen Mirren, Pierce Brosnan and Ben Kingsley are “being eyed” to lead the cast!
Richard Osman’s 2020 novel was such a hit that it launched a franchise. Follow-up The Man Who Died Twice followed in 2021, with The Bullet That Missed coming along in 2022. And then there was The Last Devil to Die in 2023, with a fifth book in the series expected in 2025.
