Written by SOURCE on June 28, 2022
The 1993 cult classic Hocus Pocus is getting a sequel, complete with the return of its three stars.
Tuesday, Disney+ shared a teaser trailer for the upcoming Hocus Pocus 2, directed by Anne Fletcher and written by Jen D’Angelo. Fans can expect to see Bette Midler, Sarah Jessica Parker, and Kathy Najimy back as the mischievous Sanderson sisters.
The sequel was formally announced last May, with Fletcher saying in a statement she was “so grateful” to have been enlisted with the unique opportunity of bringing such “delicious characters” back for another round of well-timed Halloween mayhem.
“This is a movie for everyone, from the fans who grew up with the first film to the next generation of viewers, and I can’t wait to get started,” she said at the time.
The sequel picks up 29 years after the resurrection-spurring lighting of the Black Flame Candle. This time around, three high school students are tasked with going up against the Sanderson sisters to stop them from pulling off their plans for imminent chaos.
Hocus Pocus 2 debuts Sept. 30 on Disney+. See the new teaser trailer up top.
