The CW hasn't given up on its hopes to reboot Charmed, though the initial pitch is being retooled.

"It's in redevelopment," CW boss Mark Pedowitz told reports at the 2017 TV Critics' Association summer press tour. "[We're] waiting to see what Jennie Urman wants to come back with. ... It's early in the development process, but we're redeveloping it, and hopefully it will come out."

Jane the Virgin creator Jennie Urman is writing the upcoming revival series with Jessica O’Toole and Amy Rardin, all of whom will executive produce alongside Propagate Content's Ben Silverman and Brad Silberling. When the initial news broke, was attached to direct.

Charmed aired on The WB from 1998 to 2006. The series centered around three sisters who are also witches referred to as the "Charmed Ones," who used their magical powers as a force for good. It initially starred Alyssa Milano, Holly Marie Combs and Shannen Doherty, before Doherty exited and was replaced by a new sister played by Rose McGowan.
