26 years after 💦the film's release, Practical Magic is getting a sequel.

The film starred Sandra Bullock and Nicole Kidman as Sally and Gillian Owenꦿs, two witches who come from a long line of magic practitioners and were taught to use practical magic. After accidentally killing Gillian's abusive boyfriend, the two use a forbidden spell to bring h🔯im back – and things don't exactly go as planned. Griffin Dunne directed from a screenplay by Robin Swicord, Akiva Goldsman, and Adam Brooks. The pic ultimately bombed at the box office, but (rightfully) became a beloved cult classic. 

, Goldsman is back to pen the script – with Bullock and Kidman in talks to return.

The original cast also includ�⛎�es Stockard Channing, Evan Rachel Wood, Dianne Wiest, Aidan Quinn, Goran Visnjic, Mark Feuerstein, and Chloe Webb.

A spin-off series titled Sudbury was set to hit CBS in 2004, but the network de⛦cided not to pick it up. Warner Bros. tried again in 2010 with an ABC Family prequel series, though this also failed to get a green light. After one last try, back in 2019, but once again the project never materialized.
