The hot-button issue of abortion is approached in a humane, meaningful way in “Cherry,” an intimate dramedy about a young woman forced to make the toughest decision of her life in a very short timeframe. Making immediate her emotional and physical struggles as she explores whether or not to keep her baby, the film wins us over with an unwavering focus on its eponymous heroine’s coming-of-age journey. Timely subject matter aside, this briskly-paced, clean-lined feature is an assured debut for French-born director Sophie Galibert. After picking up an audience award at last year’s Tribeca fest, “Cherry” opens in select U.S. theaters April 14, with digital platforms to follow the week after.
Frazzled 25-year-old Cherry (Alex Trewhitt) is having a tough time. Her ruby-red Vw Beetle has mechanical problems, forcing her to roller-skate to her job at a small costume shop, arriving late. Her demanding boss (Joe Sachem) is...

Anne Rice’s biggest claim to fame will always be “Interview With the Vampire” and the ensuing Vampire Chronicles. However, most casual horror fans don’t know that her impressive catalog also features a multigenerational saga about a family of witches. Beginning with “The Witching Hour,” Rice wrote a trilogy of novels following a matrilineal line of magical women. AMC’s Mayfair Witches brings this saga to the fore with a star-studded adaptation of Rice’s dense source material. Alexandra Daddario stars as Rowan Fielding, a California brain surgeon and the 13th Mayfair witch who was whisked away at birth and knows nothing of her family’s occult history. Annabeth Gish is her mother Dierdre, an unfortunate prisoner in the family’s New Orleans home, and Jack Huston is the mysterious Lasher, a demonic presence haunting the women of the Mayfair line.

In the TV Insider exclusive clip above, Alexandra Daddario‘s Mayfair witch finds herself in the mysterious memory world of Lasher’s (Jack Huston) creation that Ciprien (Tongayi Chirisa) narrowly escaped in Episode 7.

In Mayfair Witches episode 5 “The Thrall,” Alexandra Daddario plays with double indemnity as her Dr. Rowan Fielding gets a taste of forbidden fruit, served up as a perennially fresh egg. Until recently, she was a neurosurgeon with a particularly special talent for predictive diagnosis, who found how to weaponize it. Now, as newly inherited designee of the Mayfair family, she is endowed with all the gifts of “the 13th Witch.” Rowan’s first dinner at the head of the table didn’t go very well, and it’s a damned shame. It started with a blessing.

The only surprising thing about AMC’s announcement was that it took so long to confirm Anne Rice’s Mayfair Witches has been renewed for season two. The popular supernatural series has been a hit on both AMC and AMC+, and its first season is now the most viewed on AMC+ over its first 30 days (per AMC Networks). That’s pretty impressive when you consider it was up against the final season of The Walking Dead.
Season one, which currently airs on Sundays at 9pm Et/Pt, is ranked in the top 10 cable dramas of 2022-2023. Filming on season two is expected to kick off later this year in New Orleans.

Mayfair Witches episode 4 “Curiouser and Curiouser” opens in Donnelaith, Scotland in 1681. The midwife Suzanne Mayfair (Hannah Alline) is being led through the woods to a secret meeting place to bid final farewell to the gifted healer who she guided into death. The witches who gather for a “true funeral” celebrate the life of their fallen sister, dancing in the moonlight as the magic moves into a new generation.
Anne Rice redefined immortal bloodsuckers with The Vampire Chronicles. She alchemized a new brew for her Mayfair Witches novel trilogy The Witching Hour (1990), Lasher (1993), and Taltos (1994), putting a personal spin on demonic sorcery. She also created her own demon, Lasher, played by Jack Huston on the series. But is he an evil entity? People have been asking “are you a good witch or a bad witch” long before a house fell out of the sky in Oz.

As they plunge deeper into hell on earth, the lines between good and evil blur, and their own demons emerge.
