A 'Hocus Pocus 2' Might Be In the Works!

This has to be the BEST news I’ve heard all year … there just might be a ‘Hocus Pocus 2’ in the works and my 6-year old self is screaming with joy!

‘Hocus Pocus’ originally released back in 1993 and starred Bette Midler, Sarah Jessica Parker and Kathy Najimy who played the iconic Sanderson sisters.  Rumour has it – Disney has hired Jen D’Angelo to write the script for ‘Hocus Pocus 2.’  Jen is known for her work on Workaholics, where she wrote and co-produced the production.  If production on the film does follow through, it’ll be featured on Disney+.

In a 2017 interview with Kenny Ortega (director of the original ‘Hocus Pocus’), he told Entertainment Tonight, “I would like to see a sequel, and I think fans would like to see a sequel. I think it would be much more fun to bring the ladies back.  They’re all still vital and in their prime and capable of doing so much that it would be great to see Bette and Kathy and Sarah come back together to do another movie and I think they would like to.”

Sarah Jessica Parker who played younger sister Sarah Sanderson, explained to Entertainment Weekly, “I don’t think any of us who were making it at the time thought Hocus Pocus would have such a long life.  People tell me all the time they grew up watching it, and that they still watch it. I think it’s wonderful.”
