Interview with Madchen Amick of Witches of East End

Starring Julia Ormond, Jenna Dewan-Tatum, Rachel Boston and Mädchen Amick. Prepare to be spellbound as Lifetime® brews up a brand new series filled with magic, mystery and family relations. Based on the best-selling novel by Melissa de la Cruz, Witches of East End is coming to the UK less than a month after its hotly anticipated US premiere.

Featuring an all-star cast headlined by Emmy® Award winner Julia Ormond alongside Jenna Dewan-Tatum, Rachel Boston and Mädchen Amick, the drama follows the adventures of the mysterious Beauchamps, a family of witches who live in the sleepy, secluded American town of East Haven. Freya (Dewan-Tatum) and Ingrid Beauchamp (Boston) live seemingly uneventful lives until their mother Joanna (Ormond) is forced to reveal an age-old family secret that will change their lives forever. After a series of unfortunate events, Joanna tells her two daughters that they are powerful and immortal witches who must quickly get to grips with their new-found mystical abilities in order to save their family legacy. As the stakes become higher, Freya and Ingrid must struggle with family secrets and relationships in order to keep them all together.

This week I got to chat to the stunning Madchen who plays Wendy in the hit show. Joanna Beauchamp’s mischievous, beautiful, carefree and wryly humorous sister Wendy takes pride in her power to freely and carelessly transform between human and cat form, which often times puts her in troublesome predicaments. Cursed and blessed with having nine lives, she comes back into Joanna’s life after 100 years to inform her that an evil dark force is after their family, causing Joanna to twist the fate she had planned for her daughters and exposing their family’s secret.

Tuesdays at 10pm on Lifetime (Sky 156 / Virgin 242)
