It’s midnight somewhere, so start making some margaritas. Here’s all the details bubbling up about a Practical Magic sequel.
How will the Owens sisters toil and trouble this time?
According to The Hollywood Reporter, a Practical Magic sequel is brewing with Kidman and Bullock attached to executive-produce and to reprise their roles as sisters Gillian and Sally Owens. It will be written by one of the original screenwriters of the first film, Akiva Goldsman. Right now, there are no plot details available for the sequel. But when we last left off with the witches, they overcame the family curse preventing them from ever finding love. Are any more curses going to be uncovered in the past 20 years? Sally’s daughters would be all grown up by now; maybe they have their own relationship (or broomstick) woes.

Which witches are coming back?
Aunts abound on the cast for Practical Magic 2. Dianne Wiest and Stockard Channing are reprising their roles as the Owens girls’ aunts. Unfortunately, Evan Rachel Wood isn’t coming back as eldest daughter Kylie. “I am getting asked about this a lot, so l’ll just clear it up now; I was not asked to come back and be in the Practical Magic sequel,” Wood wrote on Instagram Stories. “l offered my services, even if it was one scene or one line. I was told they are recasting. I am sorry to disappoint the fans. It was not in my control or my choice. I would have happily rejoined my sisters.”
New actors in the coven
We know two things for certain: Lee Pace is 1) 6’5”, and 2) appearing in Practical Magic 2. Other new faces in Spookytown, Massachusetts include Joey King, Marie Williams, Xolo Maridueña, and Solly McLeod.
