Nicholas Galitzine Joins Blumhouse's The Craft Remake

The upcoming Blumhouse remake of The Craft has added to its supporting cast with British actor Nicholas Galitzine coming on board, as reported by Deadline early this evening. The actor, who is a relative newcomer in the industry, recently appeared on HBO's Share and Netflix's Chambers. This news marks the first addition outside of the core group of friends who will make up the movie's coven.

The original film starred Robin Tunney, Fairuza Balk, Neve Campbell, Christine Taylor, Rachel True, and Skeet Ulric, telling the story of a high school newcomer who joins up with a trio of outcast students who practice witchcraft. Using a variety of spells and curses, the group gets revenge on anybody who happens to get on their bad side.

The Craft will be written and directed by Zoe Lister-Jones with Jason Blum producing alongside Douglas Wick and Lucy Fisher, both of whom produced the original 1996 film. Starring in this version is Cailee Spaeny (Pacific Rim: Uprising, On the Basis of Sex), Gideon Adlon (The Mustang, Telltale's The Walking Dead: The Final Season), Lovie Simone (Greenleaf), and Zoey Luna (Pose).
