Fans of Riverdale and fans of the OG Sabrina the Teenage Witch are waiting in anticipation for the new reboot, Chilling Adventures of Sabrina, another Archie Comics show. But other than tidbits of news here and there, the deets of the new Netflix series are being kept under wraps. But luckily, the creator of Sabrina, Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa, blessed us all with a first look at Kiernan Shipka, taking on the role of Sabrina, and Ross Lynch, who’s playing her love interest Harvey, together on set.
Well, it’s out there. A 1st look at Harvey and Sabrina from the “Chilling Adventures of #Sabrina.” ADORBS, right? pic.twitter.com/9n8cznpv2c

The older Sabrina the Teenage Witch was a sitcom, but the new Sabrina show is supposed to be much darker. EW says it “reimagines the origin and adventures of Sabrina the Teenage Witch as a dark coming-of-age story that traffics in horror, the occult, and — of course — witchcraft.” If you’re clamoring for more details, I recommend following Aguirre-Sacasa on Twitter, who has been dropping hints and revealing cast members for a couple of months now.

Here’s hoping Salem the cat is still as sassy as he was in the original.
