The director reportedly impressed Sony with her take on a “female empowerment tale.”

The original movie starred Robin Tunney, Fairuza Balk, Neve Campbell and Rachel True.

Remaking the craft would be like remaking clueless or heathers.

If they have to remake #TheCraft, they should at least cast @evilhag aka Aubrey Plaza as Nancy. It’s just common sense. #DraftAubrey

If Sony really wants to make a movie about female empowerment and witches, just reboot Sabrina the Teenage Witch and leave The Craft alone!

If you’re gonna remake The Craft then at least cast Nic Cage in every role.
