A new generation of witches is about to enter the halls of Crescent Veil as “Coven Academy,” a supernatural teen drama from executive producer Tim Federle, premieres October 2 on Disney+ Philippines, with the full season available to stream.
Set in the haunted heart of New Orleans, “Coven Academy” follows three teenage witches and their dangerously charming warlock peers at an elite magic boarding school where power comes with a price, secrets can be deadly, and romance can be complicated.
At the center of the story is Briar, played by Malina Pauli Weissman (“A Series of Unfortunate Events”), a fiercely independent New Yorker who discovers that she is a witch. As she learns to navigate her newfound abilities, Briar finds herself caught in a complicated relationship with Jake, a magnetic warlock with a dangerous edge, played by Malachi Barton, and Ollie, a newly turned vampire portrayed by Louis Thresher.
The series also stars Jordan Leftwich as Sasha, an empathetic student who can read minds; Ora Duplass as Tegan, an irreverent witch with the ability to bend time; and Tiffani Thiessen as Miss Graves, the formidable and glamorous head of the school. Special guest star Devon Sawa appears as Mr. Cole, a brilliant and charismatic warlock professor.
The recurring cast includes Swayam Bhatia as McKenna, Brendon Tremblay as Alexander, Keegan Connor Tracy as Tamora, BJ Harrison as Agnes, and Nathaniel Logan McIntyre as Teese.
As the students face ancient supernatural conflicts and forbidden relationships, the young coven must determine how far they are willing to go to protect their city and themselves. With magic, mystery, friendship, and romance colliding inside the academy, every lesson comes with its own set of risks.
Tim Federle, known for “High School Musical: The Musical: The Series,” created “Coven Academy” and serves as executive producer alongside Darren Swimmer, Todd Slavkin, Amanda Row, and Bronwyn North-Reist.
“Coven Academy” is produced by Federle’s Chorus Boy Productions in association with Disney Kids & Family and premieres October 2 on Disney+ Philippines.
