“Practical Magic 2 – 2026” Is Real — And Fans Are Brewing With Excitement
If you’ve ever whispered spells over midnight margaritas, you’re not alone—people have been practically summoning Practical Magic 2 for nearly three decades. Good news: the spell finally worked. This sequel isn’t a rumor—it’s confirmed, compelling, and scheduled to hit theaters on September 18, 2026.
A Bewitching Reunion
Nearly 30 years after Sandra Bullock and Nicole Kidman first enchanted us as the Owens sisters, they’re back in action—and this time, they’re producing too.
At their side? The beloved Aunt Franny and Aunt Jet, reprised by Stockard Channing and Dianne Wiest.
Joining the mix are new faces breaching the magical household: Joey King as Bullock’s on-screen daughter, Game of Thrones alumni Maisie Williams, Lee Pace, Xolo Maridueña, and Solly McLeod.
And here’s a touch of real-life magic: when Nicole Kidman posted a behind-the-scenes video of her and Bullock on set in floral dresses—set amidst a cemetery backdrop—fans exploded. The Instagram post racked up 50,000 likes and over 2,000 comments, many celebrating with messages like:
“THIS FEELS LIKE CHRISTMASSSS… BEST PRESENT I’VE GOT.”
Casting Update – Who Stayed, Who Didn’t
Not all reunited. Evan Rachel Wood, who originally played Kylie Owens, confirmed she’s not returning. “I offered my services… but they are recasting,” she stated.
Fan Buzz: The Magic Lives On
Fans aren’t just excited—they’re vocal. When the first teaser trailer dropped (featuring the spell chant “Tooth of wolf and morning dew… something old and something new…”), social feeds lit up. Country Living recorded fans demanding everything from midnight margaritas to Stevie Nicks on the soundtrack, and the classic ’90s aesthetic preserved.
Reddit discussions showed nostalgic longing for the original’s iconic witchy home, cozy kitchen scenes, and even Evan Rachel Wood herself—proof fans are emotionally invested in every detail.Why This Sequel Matters
