“Now is the time, now is the hour”
The Craft remake has found its lead!
According to The Hollywood Reporter, Cailee Spaeny will take on the lead role of Hannah, in the remake directed by Zoe Lister-Jones.
Here is the brief film synopsis of the film:
The story centers on Hannah, a high school outcast who falls into a friendship with three other young women and begins experimenting with witchcraft. They unleash a power that at first seems to solve problems in their lives but slowly consumes them with unforeseen costs.
This casting news makes me very happy. I think Cailee will be the perfect person to take on this role. She can convey that same naivety and then transform to a badass the way that Robin Tunney did as Sarah in the original film.
While Cailee does not have very many acting credits to her name, I am certain she will be able to pull this off. I recently saw her in Bad times at the El Royale so I have confidence she will nail this role.
What are your thoughts on these casting news?
