One of Disney+’s biggest hits is getting another sequel!

Cinema’s most eccentric wizards are back… for the second time! The Sanderson sisters from the cult film Hocus Pocus once again delight young and old 29 years after Kenny Ortega’s first feature film appearance in Hocus Pocus 2, released direct to Disney+ in 2022.

Bette Midler, Sarah Jessica Parker and Kathy Najimy don their costumes for this sequel, written by Jen D’Angelo and directed by Ann Fletcher. In this new adventure, the infernal trio – straight out of the 17th century and hungry for revenge – once again descend on the town of Salem. But on All Saints’ Day, three brave high school students will do whatever it takes to stop these rabid witches from rampaging through town.

And the return of Winifred, Sarah and Mary Sanderson paid off as Hocus Pocus 2 was a big hit on Disney+, signing the best opening weekend on the platform in the US.
