The wait is almost over. The first trailer for Practical Magic 2 has arrived, bringing back the Owens sisters in a spellbinding new adventure.

Trailer Rekindles the Magic of the Original

Set to arrive just as spring begins, the trailer for Practical Magic 2 immediately transports viewers back to the eerie, enchanting world of the Owens family. Based on Alice Hoffman’s 2021 novel The Book of Magic, the sequel follows the beloved witches as they face a dark curse threatening to unravel their family.

The official synopsis reveals:

"The sequel returns to a world steeped in moonlit mischief and powerful ancestral magic, as the Owens sisters must confront the dark curse that threatens to unravel their family once and for all in a must-see cinematic event of fun, magic and mayhem."

Original Cast Returns, New Faces Join the Coven

The returning cast includes the iconic duo Nicole Kidman and Sandra Bullock, who reprise their roles as the Owens sisters from the 1998 original. They are joined by Stockard Channing and Dianne Wiest, who also return to their original roles.

The new generation of the coven features:

• Joey King
• Lee Pace
• Maisie Williams

From Box Office Flop to Cult Classic

When Practical Magic debuted in 1998, it underperformed at the box office, grossing $68 million against a $75 million budget. However, its legacy grew over time, becoming a perennial favorite through home video releases. In recent years, the film has experienced a streaming resurgence, especially during Halloween.

Long-Awaited Sequel Finally in Motion

The journey to Practical Magic 2 was years in the making. Director Susanne Bier took the helm, with a screenplay written by Akiva Goldsman and Georgia Pritchett. The project gained momentum when Sandra Bullock contributed a story idea that paved the way for a successful return.

Mark Your Calendars

The sequel is set to open exclusively in theaters on September 11. The executive producers include Andrew Kosove, Broderick Johnson, Donald Sabourin, and Alice Hoffman.
