Sandra Bullock and Nicole Kidman are bringing the magic back! During a recent event in Las Vegas, the ‘Practical Magic’ stars teased the movie’s sequel. The two stars took the stage holding hands after emerging through a cloud of smoke. They also offered up some details on where the sequel picks up, 28 years after the original.
Sandra Bu
At CinemaCon on Tuesday, Sandra Bullock and Nicole Kidman made an exciting appearance together. As both took the stage emerging from a cloud of smoke, Bullock joked, “That’s exactly what happens every time I leave to take the kids to school.” “The witches are back!” Kidman exclaimed, as Bullock teased, “Step on my line, that’s OK.” They continued to banter as Bullock teed the room up, “Why do we come here, Nicole?” leading Kidman to deliver her signature promo line, “We come to this place for magic!” to big applause. Bullock joked, “I told you!” as Kidman admitted, “I didn’t think anyone would clap.”
Sandra Bullock and Nicole Kidman return as Sally and Gillian
“I’m sure you’ve heard of the Owens family,” Bullock said in character as Sally Owens during a teaser trailer. “The ones from Massachusetts. The ones their neighbors whisper are witches.” Bullock’s Sally has grown daughters embarking on new lives of their own, while Kidman’s boy-crazy Gillian Owens has settled into life with a black cat. It doesn’t take long for trouble to find them. On stage, Bullock called the first movie “a story that people have so politely refused to let go.” It follows two sisters in a dynasty of witches who confront a family curse while carving out their own identities.
New cast members in ‘Practical Magic’ sequel
Other than Bullock and Kidman, new members of the sequel ensemble include Lee Pace, Maisie Williams, Xolo Maridueña, Solly McLeod, and Joey King.‘Practical Magic 2’ is scheduled to release this September.
