How The 'Charmed' Actors Has Changed Over The Years
The San Francisco-based series helped in the advancement of their professional careers, which included Shannen Doherty, Alyssa Milano, and Rose McGowan. The franchise has since been expanded into a comic book series, which continues as season nine of the show when it was canceled in 2006.
Throughout its eight-season run on television, the show Charmed featured a ton of incredible talent. The sitcom is even getting a revival on The CW for a 2018 premiere, thanks to increasing interest. We thought it would be fun to check in on the previous cast and see what they were up to these days because it doesn't appear that the original cast will be returning for the new show.
Even though many of these individuals have since worked on innovative and captivating projects, they will always be known for their work on Charmed. What does the original Charmed cast look like now, as that is what we are all wondering? How 'Charm' actors have changed is incredible. See Charm actors over the years here.
