The spookiest time of yr is rapidly approaching, however there is not any want to attend for Halloween for the main points on the supernatural present bringing Tiffani Thiessen again to high school. The Saved by the Bell fan favourite has been forged for a brand new present referred to as Coven Academy for anyone with a Disney+ subscription, and it is a protected guess viewers will not be complicated her new character with Kelly Kapowski.
In Coven Academy, Tiffani Thiessen performs Miss Graves. Whereas particulars are scarce about her character on the time of writing, I might be stunned if she would not have her palms very full. Set in New Orleans, the brand new present facilities on three teenage witches, who’re in coaching and destined to protect town in opposition to harmful forces. There can be secrets and techniques and difficult-to-control magic, in addition to the extra typical teen issues like cute rivals, heartbreak, and friendships.
Becoming a member of Thiessen within the forged are A Sequence of Unlucky Occasions‘ Malina Pauli Weissman as Briar, Zombies 4: Daybreak of the Vampires’ Malachi Barton as Jake, Boarders‘ Louis Thresher as Ollie, Household Swap‘s Jordan Leftwich as Sasha, and Their City‘s Ora Duplass as Tegan. Recurring forged members are additionally actors with Disney credit to their title, together with Brendon Tremblay of Descendants: Depraved Wonderland as Alexander, Zombies 4: Daybreak of the Vampires‘ Swayam Bhatia as McKenna, and As soon as Upon a Time‘s Keegan Connor Tracy as Tamora.
The present will launch each on Disney+ and Disney Channel, so I would not depend on the present getting too terrifying even in a world of witches. Described as a supernatural dramedy, Coven Academy hails from Tim Federle, who created the song-filled Excessive Faculty Musical: The Musical: The Sequence. What that in style Disney+ present lacked in a quick title, it made up for in popular culture buzz. If Coven Academy can entice an identical viewers, it may very well be the following streaming hit for Disney+.
Federle, who wrote and directed the pilot in addition to serving as govt producer, mentioned this in an announcement concerning the upcoming sequence:
I pitched ‘Coven Academy’ as a love letter to the style YA exhibits I grew up on. I’m thrilled to deliver this unique story to the display screen with my longtime mates at Disney, led by Ayo Davis, and I can’t look forward to the world to satisfy the unbelievable forged and crew who’re conjuring our world into being.
All of this mentioned, the present will not be premiering till after the 2025 TV schedule wraps, and Coven Academy is not Tiffani Thiessen’s first streaming present. She appeared sporadically in Peacock’s short-lived Saved by the Bell sequel sequence. Earlier than that, she additionally appeared in all three seasons of Alexa & Katie, which is obtainable streaming now with a Netflix subscription.
The actress hyped the brand new undertaking, posting “Thrilling information! Premiering 2026 ❤️” on Instagram. Whereas a fictional highschool setting is nothing new for Thiessen, I actually do not recall something supernatural concerning the Saved by the Bell characters. There have been unrealistic components to Saved by the Bell with out bringing in witches!
With Coven Academy not premiering till the brand new yr, you possibly can at all times revisit Tiffani Thiessan’s most beloved character with Saved by the Bell obtainable streaming with an Amazon Prime Video subscription now.
