The Magic of ‘The Nine Lives of Chloe King’

It’s time for young Hollywood to make way for its latest stars! ABC Family’s latest teen drama, The Nine Lives of Chloe King premiered June 14th, starring a batch of previously unknown actors and actresses. It drew a whopping 2.17 million viewers in its pilot episode. Impressive, isn’t it?

Like hit series Gossip Girl, The Nine Lives is based on a popular book series by Liz Braswell. The plot centers on Chloe King (played by Skyler Samuels), who realizes she has developed strange, cat-like abilities. It quickly becomes revealed that that Chloe is a descendant of an ancient race called the Mai, who used their powers to defend the human race. Sound like a lot? It doesn’t stop there. On top of this wild discovery, there is also a secret organization on the hunt to kill this ancient species.

When they attempt to kill Chloe and she comes back to life, it becomes evident that she is the single link told in Mai folklore that can unite the humans and the Mai once and for all. But she only has eight lives left to do it in.
