Tim Federle, creator of the Emmy-winning High School Musical: The Musical: The Series, is developing the single-camera series. After completing a pilot in March, Coven Academy is scheduled to premiere on Disney+ and Disney Channel in 2026.
The new show is a teen drama set in New Orleans. Its story follows a trio of young witches “bound by destiny to guard their city against dangerous, ancient forces.”
