Magic Practical 2 Will arrive in theaters on September 18, 2026. The news was confirmed by an official article on X in May by Warner Bros, accompanied by magic words from the film stars, Sandra Bullock and Nicole Kidman.
They can be heard reciting a spell: “Tooth of Wolf and Morning Dew. Something old and something new. That the fate begins to mix. September 18, 2026.”
Although he says “only in theaters”, he is quite sure to come to HBO Max after that, because it is the official streaming platform of Warner Bros. Discovery. This is where the original 1998 Practical magic I have just fallen too, if you want to remember magic.
Practical Magic 2: Has a trailer been published?
There is no civil servant Magic Practical 2 The trailer, which is not surprising since the casting and the crew have announced any shooting advice.
During an interview with Variety in February, Kidman revealed that the “advances quickly” suite, before closing other questions. I will be sure to update here when an official trailer will fall.
Practical Magic 2: Confirmed casting
Regarding Magic Practical 2 The list of actors is going, it’s quite sparse. But, there are two crucial actors who will resume their role, as Variety reported:
- Sandra Bullock like Sally Owens
- Nicole Kidman like Gillian Owens
It’s as if Magic Practical 2 would not be possible without the return of Bullock and Kidman as Owens’ sisters, so this casting announcement coming from the hand with revealing the existence of the film has a total meaning (and is a huge relief).
To perfectly link the casting, we wonder if Stégard Channing and Dianne Wiest will also resume their emblematic roles of Aunt Franny and Aunt Jet respectively. The two women still act, despite 81 and 77 years, respectively.
There is a great crew member who returns, however, and it is Akiva Goldsman who co-wrote the original Practical magic. And he is officially back on board for writing Magic Practical 2.
Finally, but also to confirm, Joey King would be “in talks” to play Sally’s daughter (according to the variety) and we will deepen the importance of this role in the section of the plot below.
Practical Magic 2: Synopsis and rumors of history
Complete spoilers for Practical magic follow. In addition, potential spoilers for Magic Practical 2.
The original Practical magic The film in 1998 is based on the first novel in the author’s famous series, Alice Hoffman. He followed Sally and Gillian, two reluctant witch sisters, which are raised by their aunts in a small town to tackle a curse that could prevent them from finding love.
And, growing up, they use their practical magic donation to try to break the miserable curse for good.
So when it comes to the intrigue of Magic Practical 2He marks a return to books. Hoffman’s series consists of four novels; Practical magic (1995)Magic rules (2017)Magic lessons (2020) And The Magic Book (2021). And Entertainment Weekly revealed exclusively in July 2024 that The Magic Book would be the basis of the plot of the suite.
Addressing EW, producer Denise Di Novi said: “I think [fans are] will be very happy. We are going to be very faithful. We are aware of the importance of these characters and this film for so many people. We are not going to reinvent the wheel. “”
We know by the official synopsis of the book that this, the fourth in the series of Hoffman, follows “three generations of Owens women, and a brother lost for a long time”, as well as the “young generation”, including Kylie Owens, the daughter of Sally.
And, of course, there are already discussions on the cast of Sally’s daughter, but I will not dive into the synopsis of this book further for fear of revealing too much. I don’t want the same generational curse that haunts the Owens family who descends on me.
Will there be more practical magic films?
Never say. Although there is no suggestion than more Practical magic The films are on the way, I cannot say with certainty that it marks the end. That said, given that Magic Practical 2 is based on Alice Hoffman’s conclusive novel of her series, then for the story of Sandra Bullock and Nicole Kidman at least, it’s … well, conclusive.
But, when another film could be out of the question, what would you say about a television program? The two prequel novels that took place between Practical magic And The Magic Book were at the center of previous attempts, although failed, to bring Practical magic Back to life.
The most recent by HBO Max as he hoped to create a television series in 2019. Concentrated to focus on the aunts, Franny and Jet, he failed to get the green light, but perhaps Magic Practical 2 Can make magic back to life?
I imagine that everything will depend on the success of the film – if it is a great success, the benefits could be developed fairly quickly.
