The first teaser for a new Freeform series, Motherland: Fort Salem, was released today. The series is set in an alternate America where witches ended their persecution 300 year ago by agreeing to fight for the United States government.

“In this world, the traditional roles of gender and power are flipped with the more dominant women on the front lines fighting looming terrorist threats that are familiar to our world, but with tactics and supernatural weapons,” the series description reads.

"We’re so excited to be able to tell this story rich with female empowerment, complex storytelling and an incredibly creative canon," said Freeform President Tom Ascheim in a statement to Deadline. "While set in an alternative universe, Motherland: Fort Salem will continue the authentic and issues-driven storylines that our network is known for, and what our audience has come to expect."
