In 2004, a fantasy teen-oriented TV drama involving psychic abilities, elementals and aliens, among others, was born.

Spirits, directed by Chito Rono and produced by Star Creatives, was about a group of youngsters who discovered that they have supernatural powers. It starred some of this generationโ€™s household names such as Maja Salvador and Rayver Cruz. Likewise, it starred former child stars Serena Dalrymple, Jiro Manio, and John Wayne Sace, as well as other actors Michelle Madrigal, Joseph Bitangcol, and Mico Aytona.

Now, 14 years after it first premiered on Philippine TV, a revival is on its way! Spirits Reawaken will stream via the iWant app starting November 17 and will star todayโ€™s teen celebs such as Grae Fernandez, Jairus Aquino, Kira Balinger, Bugoy Carino, Chantal Videla, and Patrick Quiroz.

But before we get to know the new ones, letโ€™s first take a trip down memory lane as we recall the old cast and where they are now.

1. Maja Salvador

One of the most sought-after actresses of today, Majaโ€™s last TV drama project was the top-rated Wildflower where she played the iconic character of Lily Cruz. Currently, she has a movie titled To Love Some Buddy which also stars Zanjoe Marudo.
