The 90s pop culture phenomenon Sabrina the Teenage Witch remains one of the most beloved sitcoms of its era, captivating a generation with its blend of high school drama and fantastical magical mishaps. More than two decades since the final episode aired in 2003, the original cast continues to make headlines with major career moves, surprising reunions, and, sadly, a recent passing that has saddened fans globally. As of this current date in December 2025, the Spellman family and their mortal friends are more active than ever, with new projects spanning from Hallmark Christmas movies to executive-produced thrillers.
The enduring popularity of the series, which ran for seven seasons from 1996 to 2003, speaks to its potent mix of nostalgia and charm. The curiosity about what happened to the stars behind Sabrina, the aunts, Harvey, and the sarcastic cat Salem is at an all-time high, especially with so many recent, high-profile updates across the entertainment industry.
The Core Cast: Full Biography and Latest Career Updates (2024-2025)
The original cast of Sabrina the Teenage Witch has branched out significantly, with many moving into producing, directing, and stand-up comedy. Here is a look at the main stars and what they have been up to lately, complete with their essential biography and current projects:
- Melissa Joan Hart (Sabrina Spellman): The titular star has transitioned successfully into a major force behind the camera as a producer and director. Her recent work includes starring in and executive producing the Lifetime thriller *The Bad Guardian*, which premiered in March 2024. She also produced the Netflix holiday rom-com *A Merry Little Ex-Mas* and is set to star in another thriller, *Killing the Competition*. Hart frequently reunites with her co-stars, fueling the ongoing *Sabrina* nostalgia.
- Caroline Rhea (Hilda Spellman): A successful stand-up comedian and host, Rhea continues to tour and appear in television. Most notably, she reunited with her on-screen sister, Beth Broderick, for the 2024 Hallmark Christmas movie, *Holiday Mismatch*. She also participated in a *Sabrina* cast panel at Comic-con Scotland in 2024.
- Beth Broderick (Zelda Spellman): Known for her stage work and advocacy, Broderick’s recent projects have delighted fans. Her 2024 reunion with Caroline Rhea in the Hallmark movie *Holiday Mismatch* was a major event, with the actresses confirming the film includes a special *Sabrina the Teenage Witch* Easter egg. She has also been active in various television roles.
- Nate Richert (Harvey Kinkle): Sabrina's long-time love interest has focused heavily on his music career as a musician and songwriter since the show ended. Richert, who played the kind-hearted mortal, still embraces his fan base, offering personalized videos on platforms like Cameo. He also appeared in a July 2024 article discussing his current look and activities.
- Nick Bakay (Voice of Salem Saberhagen): The voice behind the show’s breakout star, the talking cat Salem, has had a prolific career as a writer and producer. His most recent and significant project is co-creating, writing, and executive producing the Chuck Lorre-produced comedy series *Bookie*, which premiered in 2024.
A Heartfelt Tribute: Remembering Martin Mull (Mr. Kraft)
The year 2024 brought sad news for fans of the show with the passing of actor and comedian Martin Mull, who played the perpetually exasperated Vice Principal Willard Kraft—Sabrina's mortal foil and one of the show’s most memorable supporting characters. Mull passed away in June 2024 at the age of 80.
Mull's portrayal of Mr. Kraft, a character constantly bewildered by the strange events at Westbridge High, was a masterclass in comedic timing. He was a cornerstone of the show's early seasons, providing a perfect contrast to Sabrina’s magical antics.
Beyond *Sabrina*, Mull was a celebrated actor and artist, known for roles in *Roseanne* and *Arrested Development*, as well as his distinguished career as a photorealist painter. His death is a significant loss to the world of comedy and art, and he is remembered fondly by the cast and the millions of fans who grew up watching his comedic genius.
The Supporting Stars: Where Are Libby, Valerie, and the Later Cast Now?
While the Spellman family and Harvey Kinkle were the heart of the show, the supporting cast provided crucial comedy and conflict. Many of these actors have maintained busy careers in both film and television, contributing to the show's rich topical authority in the 90s sitcom landscape.
Jenna Leigh Green (Libby Chessler)
Jenna Leigh Green, who played the snobbish, rival cheerleader Libby Chessler, has become a prominent figure in the world of musical theater. After leaving the series, Green found success on Broadway and in touring productions, most famously playing a role in the original cast of *Wicked*. Her recent screen work includes an appearance in the Showtime series *The Loudest Voice*, proving her versatility beyond the 90s sitcom.
Lindsay Sloane (Valerie Birkhead)
Lindsay Sloane, who played Sabrina’s nervous but loyal mortal friend Valerie Birkhead, has maintained a steady career in comedy films and television. She is known for her roles in movies like *Horrible Bosses* and the TV series *Playing House*. Sloane remains an active actress, often appearing in supporting roles in both major studio and independent projects, further solidifying the cast's lasting presence in Hollywood.
The Later-Season Cast: Morgan and Roxie
As the show evolved and Sabrina moved to college, new characters were introduced, adding fresh dynamics to the magical world. Elisa Donovan played Morgan Cavanaugh, a stylish and shallow roommate, and Soleil Moon Frye (known for *Punky Brewster*) played the activist Roxie King. Donovan continues to act, write, and produce, while Frye has seen a resurgence in popularity, including the recent revival of *Punky Brewster* and a documentary about her life, showcasing the ongoing relevance of 90s sitcom stars.
The Power of Nostalgia and the 2024 Reunion Magic
The sheer volume of recent updates and cast reunions highlights the powerful, ongoing cultural impact of *Sabrina the Teenage Witch*. The multiple 2024 appearances, including the Comic-con panel and the joint Hallmark movie, prove that the bond between the actors—and the audience's love for the show—is still incredibly strong.
This wave of 90s nostalgia is more than just a trip down memory lane; it’s a testament to the show's successful blend of fantasy, comedy, and coming-of-age themes. From Melissa Joan Hart's move into producing gripping thrillers to Nick Bakay's success in modern comedy writing, the cast has leveraged their sitcom fame into diverse and thriving careers. The recent updates ensure that the magic of Westbridge continues to cast a spell on new and old fans alike.
