THE CHARMED COVEN - Hobbies - http://maxpages.com/scallystuff/Charmed

THANK YOU TO GPUTZ FOR THIS PICTURE!

For three spellbinding years, the Charmed Ones - Prue, Piper, and Phoebe - have used their witchcraft and the "Book of Shadows" to keep themselves alive as they save innocent souls and fight the darkest evil.
Now, this season, the unthinkable will happen.
The power of three will be broken forever.

Rose McGowan, who catapulted to stardom as a sexy victim in Scream, will join Alyssa Milano and Holly Marie Combs as the newest bewitching sister on Charmed, it was announced today by Jordan Levin, Co-President, Entertainment of The WB.

"Both Alyssa and Holly Marie have set a high bar," said Mr. Levin. "In searching for the third member of the ensemble, we are truly fortunate to have the opportunity to work with Rose McGowan and believe she will bring a new and different dynamic to Charmed."

McGowan will play a long-lost sister to Phoebe (Milano) and Piper (Combs), and will be introduced when the series begins its fourth season this fall. Her name will be (apparently) Paige Halliwell, supposedly the daughter of the sister's mother, patty, and pattys whitelighter 'Sam'.

- With Rose McGowan in place to join the cast of The WB's "Charmed," following the departure of Shannen Doherty, the main challenge facing executive producer Brad Kern and his staff is explaining it all in a way that makes sense.

Doherty's character Prue Halliwell, the eldest of a trio of sister witches living in
San Francisco, apparently did not survive the series' cataclysmic third-season finale.
And when your series' premise rests on there being three "Charmed Ones,"
that's a gap that must be filled.

Enter Paige Halliwell -- the long-lost younger half-sister of surviving siblings Piper (Holly Marie Combs) and Phoebe (Alyssa Milano). Kern plans either a two-part season premiere or a two-hour single episode, to air in late September, to explain the new character, the secret daughter of the sisters' mother and her illicit lover, a "White Lighter"
(magical protectors that look after good witches).

Piper herself fell for her White Lighter, Leo (Brian Krause), but her mother's affair was expressly forbidden, and the child that came of it had to be hidden away.

"From Paige's point of view," says Kern, "you go to bed one night, and you think you're a single child, and no one understands you. Then you wake up the next morning, and you find out you've got sisters who are witches, who've got supernatural powers, who have a destiny that you must now share and embrace, and you must learn your new powers."

"It won't be a coincidence that she was named with a name that starts with a 'P,'
like her sisters."

According to Kern, Paige's newly emerged power resembles Prue's ability to move objects with her mind, but because her father was a White Lighter,
she will have other abilities as well.

"When we meet her," says Kern, "she will have been searching for many years, both for her birth parents, but also for an answer to that feeling that she's had inside of her that there's something special, there's something else that nobody has yet been able to understand and explain."

"We hope to tap into that. It's also organic to the character. She brings a lot of energy and enthusiasm to a grieving family. That's going to help us be able to honestly deal with the death of Prue, as well as being able to keep the fun of the show. Here comes Paige, who suddenly has all these powers and thinks it's pretty cool."

"Our personal hope was to find somebody that would be of Shannen's caliber," says Kern, "that would have the sexiness, the edge and the range. That, for the age range we were looking for, is hard to find."

"I think Rose definitely has an attitude, and that's an energy that we can take advantage of for the betterment of the show."

Kern says the changeover has also reenergized the writing staff, which now faces a fresh set of challenges and story opportunities.
