Chance Perdomo, recognised for playing Henry in the BBC adaptation of Jacqueline Wilson’s children’s book Hetty Feather, is set to move stateside to star in one of Netflix’s most talked about teen dramas.

The Brit, who’s earned his acting stripes at The Old Vic and the Mayflower Theatre, is set to star opposite Mad Men’s Kiernan Shipka in a rebooted series of Sabrina the Teenage Witch and will play her British warlock cousin, Ambrose Spellman. Perdomo has described the untitled project as ‘The Exorcist meets Buffy the Vampire Slayer’, and will start filming in the coming months.
