It’s time to bring on the magic again as Nicole Kidman and Sandra Bullock are returning for Practical Magic 2! The Hollywood stars will team up once again on the big screen as Warner Bros. has officially confirmed that the sequel is happening.
It has also been confirmed that this film will be a sequel to the 1998 movie. This news might come as a surprise to some as the first one struggled critically and commercially. As per The Numbers, the film grossed about $68 million worldwide on a budget of $60 million.

Nicole Kidman and Sandra Bullock will reprise their roles as Gillian and Sally Owens, the pair of unlucky and cursed sisters. Their flaw is that any man they fall in love with dies. The original film followed them on a quest of ridding themselves of the curse and the methods involved bringing back a toxic ex and drinking cocktails.
Details about the second film are sparse for now, but producer Denise Di Novi told Entertainment Weekly that the film will use Alice Hoffman’s The Book of Magic novel (released in 2021) as source material. The first film was adapted from Hoffman’s eponymous 1995 book. Book of Magic is the sequel to the first book. She also said that the film is "going to be true to the chronology of how many years later it is."

“‘Hollywood’ made the movie and fully leaned into it. They may have regretted it once we got eviscerated, but they were brave enough to make it back then, so for that I am so grateful.” Kidman added, “I just remember loving the film. I won’t be pulled off it if I love it. And I love it!”
