Practical Magic 2 brings the Owens sisters back to the big screen 28 years after the 1998 cult classic cast its spell. Sandra Bullock and Nicole Kidman return as Sally and Gillian Owens in the long-awaited sequel, which opened at No. 1 at the box office and ended a six-week chart-topping run by Spider-Man: Brand New Day. For more on the leading ladies, see our Nicole Kidman biography and Sandra Bullock biography.
Directed by Susanne Bier from a screenplay by Akiva Goldsman and Georgia Pritchett (Kelly Marcel is credited per Warner Bros. notes), the film is based on Alice Hoffman's novel The Book of Magic. Original stars Dianne Wiest and Stockard Channing return as the beloved aunts, while Joey King, Maisie Williams, Lee Pace, Xolo Maridueña and Solly McLeod join the ensemble. Denise Di Novi produces alongside Bullock and Kidman for Warner Bros. and Alcon.
