Filming - Week 1
Time for a little summary of what has been going on on the set of Witches of East End this week!

Casting updates
Soooooo! Casting has been shifting much lately. Sounds like the show is really coming then, with a bunch of pretty-awesomely great actors! Actually, the cast is having read-through before filming.

Filming begins!
Hi everyone! Filming Witches of East End is about to begin in Vancouver; the news that Rachel Boston and Jenna Dewan-Tatum both arrived in town makes it pretty clear.

The handsome actor just joined the Witches of East End family as a replacement to Patrick Heusinger, who left the role a few weeks ago. So, what do you think? Will he be good as Freya's fiancé? I do think he goes along with Jenna Dewan perfectly, physically speaking.
Concerning the already filmed pilot, there are still no news about its future. (Will he be refilmed entirely, or will they only film new scenes?)
