‘Hocus Pocus 2’ In The Works At Disney

On Friday, the stars of Hocus Pocus had a reunion to benefit a charity. The big question is will three ever reunite for a sequel? The answer is hopefully yes!

Generation after generation, it’s kind of remarkable and fantastic to have something brought to the screen like that and to have it embraced generation after generation,” Garris said. “Everybody I meet, it’s either their daughters or their own favorite movie and it’s incredibly exciting.
