The academy’s roll call brings together breakout talent and familiar Disney faces.

Malina Weissman as Briar

This witch-in-training is especially close to the central mystery. Briar is discovering the coven she was destined to join, but her mother’s disappearance makes her journey painfully personal. Fans of A Series of Unfortunate Events will recognise Weissman as Violet Baudelaire.

Ora Duplass as Tegan

Another key member of the coven sisterhood steps into the circle. Tegan brings her own power and perspective to the group at the heart of the series.

Jordan Leftwich as Sasha

Sasha completes the trio as the sisterhood’s third central member. Leftwich is known for her role in Family Switch.

Malachi Barton as Jake

Jake is part of the academy’s core young ensemble. Barton recently played Victor in ZOMBIES 4: Dawn of the Vampires and also stars in Camp Rock 3.

Louis Thresher as Ollie

Boarders alum Louis Thresher joins the core cast as Ollie, a fellow student navigating friendships and relationship drama swirling through the academy.

Tiffani Thiessen as Miss Graves

With a name that practically arrives in a swirl of fog, Miss Graves’ intrigue may be her connection to a mystery surrounding Briar. Fans of Saved by the Bell, Beverly Hills, 90210, and White Collar will recognise Thiessen.
