[Interview] WITCHBOARD 2024 - Director Chuck Russell and Cast

Dave Dreher talks with iconic director Chuck Russell and the cast of WITCHBOARD: Madison Iseman, Aaron Domingues, and Charlie Tahan.

Emily, her fiancé Christian, and a group of their friends are opening a café in New Orleans French Quarter, by refurbishing an old carriage house. But a darkness descends over Emily when she discovers the Witchboard, an ancient Wiccan pendulum board once used to summon spirits. Christen seeks help for Emily from occult expert Alexander Baptiste. But Baptiste has secrets of his own.

A modern coven of White Witches, a masked ball at Baptiste’s mansion, and the legacy of Naga Soth, the Queen of Witches are all part of a dangerous game that puts Emily’s very soul at risk.

Based on the 1987 VHS video store staple by Kevin Tenney, Russell and his team bring a new spin on the classic tale of why some things found in the woods should just be left there.
