Writer-producer Judalina Neira (The Boys, Daisy Jones and the Six) has signed an overall deal with Sony Pictures Television focused on developing drama series for cable and streaming through her newly launched production company, Famous Last Words Productions.

For her first project under the pact, Neira is taking on a signature Sony title, "Bewitched". The new version is described as an irreverent hourlong reimagination of the classic TV series.

She is executive producing alongside "The Goldbergs" executive producer Doug Robinson and Lauren Moffat of Sony TV-based Doug Robinson Productions.

Not sure I like this idea. The Boys is very raunchy.

This will be the fourth attempt to revive the show in the last 15 years. The earlier attempts included a straightforward remake for CBS, a sequel for NBC focusing on Samantha’s granddaughter, and an interracial version for ABC from Kenya Barris. None of them even shot a pilot, so I’m not holding my breath for this one.

I hope this doesn't happen. It's a worse idea than the movie. I hate when Hollywood thinks it needs to redo classics in its modern way.
