What the Actors From “Charmed” Look Like and What They Do 23 Years After the Series Release
The first installment of Charmed came out in 1998 and followed 3 sister-witches who’d fight evil as they conquered the hearts of teenagers all over the world. Thanks to its popularity, 8 seasons of the series were released, and countless actors took part in it.
Today at Bright Side, we want to recall our favorite characters 23 years after the first season was released.
Prue Halliwell — Shannen Doherty
After Charmed, Shannen produced some television shows, starred in a handful of sitcoms, and appeared on several reality shows. In 2015, together with Holly Marie Combs, her colleague from Charmed, they starred in a 6-episode reality show, in which they traveled across the South-East part of the United States and described the places they visited. In 2017, the actress defeated a terrible disease — on her Instagram page, she shared that she was currently in remission.
Phoebe Halliwell— Alyssa Milano
Alyssa Milano starred in a few more movies and TV series after Charmed. Currently, Deadly Desires, a movie on Netflix, is in production and stars Milano. In addition, Milano actively participated in commercials and appeared on covers of popular magazines, like Cosmopolitan, Maxim and Woman’s World.
Paige Matthews — Rose McGowan
After Charmed, Rose McGowan took part in a number of movies, but she mostly had bit roles. She also appeared in music videos. And this is not the only thing that connects McGowan with music — in 2018, her debut album, Planet 9, was released.
Piper Halliwell — Holly Marie Combs
Apart from Charmed, Holly Marie Combs also starred in the popular TV series, Pretty Little Liars, and had a few small roles in movies. Recently, in 2019, Combs married restaurateur, Mike Ryan. This is her third marriage.
After Charmed was finished, the AOL web portal named Combs the “third greatest witch in the history of television.” And it seems to be true because she hasn’t really changed in 23 years. Pure magic!
