The spellbinding world of Practical Magic is expanding, and leading the charge once again is Sandra Bullock. The Oscar-winning actress reprises her role as Sally Owens in the sequel to the beloved 1998 film, bringing fans back to the mystical heart of the Owens family.
Nicole Kidman also returns as Gillian Owens, her wild-spirited sister, alongside the unforgettable aunt duo: Dianne Wiest (Jet) and Stockard Channing (Franny). The film’s charm rests heavily on these returning stars, who made the original so memorable.
New additions to the cast—Joey King, Maisie Williams, Xolo Maridueña, Lee Pace, and Solly McLeod—add intrigue, potentially ushering in a new chapter for the magical family. While official roles are undisclosed, it’s rumored Joey King may take over as one of Sally’s daughters. Evan Rachel Wood, who originally played Kylie Owens, has confirmed she will not return—a revelation that’s stirred conversation among long-time fans.
The creative direction is in the hands of acclaimed director Susanne Bier, with a screenplay by Akiva Goldsman and Georgia Pritchett. Bullock and Kidman also step into producing roles, ensuring continuity with the original’s tone and legacy.
Production is underway, and Warner Bros. has locked in September 18, 2026, for its theatrical debut. Though plot details are being kept secret, sources suggest that the film might draw from The Book of Magic, the final installment in Alice Hoffman’s literary series.
For fans of sisterhood, spells, and second chances, Practical Magic 2 could be the cinematic enchantment they’ve been waiting for.
