Melissa Joan Hart’s fans were gobsmacked to see the actress referred to as “grandma” in her latest role.
The resurfaced clip was from her starring role as Ella in Would You Kill For Me? The Mary Bailey Story, which premiered in October.
The film follows the harrowing true story of young Mary (played by Presley Allard) who, on her mother’s orders, killed her stepdad with a rifle.
While many have fond memories of Melissa in the titular role of Sabrina The Teenage Witch, in her latest role, the actress stars as Mary’s grandmother.
As the scene landed on social media, fans were sent into a frenzy and unsettled by this as the actress is only 47 years old.

While @baearthor stated: “Melissa is 47 years old, which isn't impossible to be a grandmother, but this is more demonstrative of how the film industry sees women.”
In the video, Melissa’s character Ella takes a turkey out of the oven and adds it to the spread on the Christmas table, where a youngster remarks: “It’s perfect, Grandma.”
