A new cover has been released from the upcoming issue of Disney’s D23 Magazine that features our favorite Salem witches from the long-awaited sequel, Hocus Pocus 2, that is headed our way this Fall. Nearly three decades after Hocus Pocus was released in 1993, the Sanderson sisters are returning - Bette Midler as Winifred; Sarah Jessica Parker as Sarah, and Kathy Najimy as Mary. They are joined by Doug Jones who is also returning from the first film to play Billy Butcherson.
Newcomers to the franchise include Whitney Peak, Lilia Buckingham, Belisa Escobedo, Hannah Waddingham, Tony Hale, Sam Richardson, Juju Brener, Froy Gutierrez, Nina Kitchen, and Taylor Paige Henderson.
The film is being directed by Anne Fletcher (Step Up, 27 Dresses, The Proposal, The Guilt Trip, Hot Pursuit, and Dumplin') with a screenplay written by Jen D'Angelo (Workaholics, Young Rock).
Here’s the synopsis:
"This Halloween Season, some legends never die…" It's been 29 years since someone lit the Black Flame Candle and resurrected the 17th-century Sanderson Sisters, and they are looking for revenge. Now it is up to three high school students to stop the ravenous child-hungry witches from wreaking a new kind of havoc on Salem before dawn on All Hallow's Eve.
The movie will stream exclusively on Disney+ starting on September 30th, 2022. Check out the full cover photo below, and let us know if you’re looking forward to Hocus Pocus 2!
