The D23 Expo dropped some new trailers for their two highly anticipated sequels coming this fall. First up is Hocus Pocus 2, the sequel to the beloved 1993 Halloween comedy. Sarah Jessica Parker, Bette Midler, and Kathy Najimy return as the witchy Sanderson sisters, who are brought back to life via (what else) teens meddling with the black flame candle. The three teen girls, Becca (Whitney Peak), Izzy (Belissa Escobedo), and Cassie (Lilia Buckingham) must defend Salem from the child-hungry witches and save the town. The cast includes Sam Richardson, Hannah Waddingham, Froyan Gutierrez, and Tony Hale. And of course, the great Doug Jones reprising his role as friendly zombie Billy Butcherson. The film is directed by Anne Fletcher (The Proposal).
There’s a lot to like in this trailer: kid versions of the Sanderson sisters, spell-casting in a Walgreens, and Najimy riding two Roombas? Sign me UP. Hocus Pocus 2 premieres on September 30 on Disney+.
