What to expect from Spellbound? Plot and cast details revealed

Spellbound's official trailer was released on August 11, 2023, and it offers a glimpse of the numerous important events set to unfold in protagonist Cece Parker-Jones' life.

She goes to Paris to learn ballet, but after she discovers a book of disturbing family secrets, her life turns into an absolute nightmare as some bizarre supernatural events unfold.

Overall, the trailer maintains a scary tone that fans of horror shows would certainly enjoy. Along with the trailer, Hulu has also put out the official trailer for the series on their YouTube channel which reads:

''When Cece Parker Jones, a vivacious 15 year old relocates from a small town in the US to France to study at the Paris Opera Ballet School, she’s on top of the world. But things turn upside down when she discovers a book of family spells in the back room of her Aunt Ginger’s apothecary. While snooping through the book, she unknowingly casts the antidote to a protection spell that has been hiding her identity since she was a little girl.''

The synopsis further reads,

''And in doing so, she summons her nemesis. This spit-fire teen must juggle the pressures of an elite ballet school, learning new techniques she’s never studied before, keeping up with her intense academics, not to mention her new friendships and maybe a cute boy… or two, as well as her incredible ability to activate magic, while keeping this a secret for only her closest friends.''

The cast is led by noted actress Hailey Romain, who portrays the character of protagonist Cece Parker-Jones. Romain looks quite impressive in the film's trailer as she perfectly portrays her character's fear and anguish with remarkable ease.
