Fate: The Winx Saga cast features an ensemble lineup and viewers may recognize a fair amount of them. The Netflix show is based on Iginio Straffi's animated series Winx Club, and follows a group of fairies and specialists who train at Alfea College. When the villainous Burned Ones threaten to cross over a protective barrier, the students team up with the headmistress and prepare for battle.

In Fate: The Winx Saga, 16-year-old Bloom arrives at Alfea College and learns how to develop her fire powers. She finds out that her colleague Stella is a literal princess, and also discovers that her love interest, Sky (Stella's ex), is a "legacy student" - the son of a beloved warrior. When an attack from the Burned Ones seems imminent, Stella and her fellow students form a plan, only to discover that the adults have been protecting them from a different threat, one that could change the immediate future of Alfea College.
