“Never say never.”

We are currently screaming because Charmed star Holly Marie Combs says a movie with the original cast is possible (!!!).

For the show’s 20th anniversary, the American actress – who played Piper Halliwell for its entire eight season run – made a special guest appearance with her on-screen husband, Brian Krause, at the Paris Manga & Sci-Fi Show (20 October).

When a fan asked if a ninth season was possible with cast members Shannen Doherty, Alyssa Milano and Rose McGowan, Holly replied: “A whole season? I don’t know if a whole season, but maybe something.”

Because the fans were not giving up, another asked if we can expect a movie, to which she said: “Possibly. I say never say never.”

Brian – who played Leo Wyatt on the series – agreed with Holly and claimed it’s ‘possible’. Watch below.

Earlier this month a Charmed reboot premiered on The CW, and Holly was particularly outspoken.

When the reboot was deemed a “fierce, funny and feminist” version of the show, she slammed the network.

She tweeted: “I will never understand what is fierce, funny, or feminist in creating a show that basically says the original actresses are too old to do a job they did 12 years ago.”

And Alyssa – who portrayed Phoebe Halliwell –  told Entertainment Tonight: “I wish that they would have come to us and we would have been involved since the beginning.”

Just like the original version, Charmed follows three sister witches, Macy, Mel and Maggie (played by Madeleine Mantock, Melonie Diaz, and Sarah Jeffery) who discover their magical ancestry.

To the underworld, they’re known as ‘The Power of Three’, the most powerful witches in the world. They must use their abilities to vanquish demons, the forces of darkness, save the world when it’s in peril etc.

Watch the trailer below.

Charmed airs Sundays on The CW.
