The Craft is 20 years old - where are they now?
It was the film that introduced the world to Neve Campbell and paved the way for Charmed. Twenty years ago today (May 3rd), The Craft was released in cinemas.
To celebrate here's a recap of where the stars of the film are now.
- Robin Tunney
Tunney played new girl Sarah Bailey who falls in with the trio of outcasts that practice witchcraft at her new school. After The Craft, she went on to star opposite Arnold Schwarzenegger and our own Gabriel Byrne in the Arnie vs. The Devil action flick, End of Days.
She had several other film roles before moving into TV. She was Lincoln Burrows (Dominic Purcell)'s love interest in season one of Prison Break before going on to star opposite Simon Baker in seven seasons of The Mentalist which finished last year.
- Fairuza Balk

Balk played bad girl Nancy, the ring leader of the coven. A method actor, Balk actually became a practicing Wicca during filming. She even bought her own occult store. Bobby Buchet's mother (Kathy Bates) might have been on to something when she referred to her as 'The Devil' in The Waterboy.
She's had a variety of supporting roles since then, appearing in the likes of Almost Famous and more recently on TV opposite Liev Schreiber in Ray Donovan.
- Neve Campbell
While she was arguably already well-known thanks to her role in Party of Five, The Craft propelled Campbell onto the movie franchise that would make her a star, Scream. Funnily enough, she almost turned down the role of Sydney Presscott because she wasn't sure another horror film was the right move her so soon after The Craft. Luckily for her, she changed her mind.
She reprised the role in all three of the Scream sequels and can currently be seen dealing with the Underwoods in House of Cards Season 4.
- Rachel True
While it's expected that the actresses would all be a little older than the 'teens' they were portraying on screen, you may be surprised to learn that Rachel True was nearly 30 when she played the role of Rochelle. True appeared in the Dave Chappelle cult comedy, Half-Baked before going on to star in her own sitcom, Half and Half which ran for 91 episodes.
Most recently she's appeared in a variety of TV movies including Sharknado 2.
