Nicole Kidman and Sandra Bullock in Practical Magic 2 Courtesy of Warner Bros. Pictures Sandra Bullock and Nicole Kidman are charming sisters and witches passing their magical skills to their kids in the trailer for Practical Magic 2, which dropped on Monday and is directed by Susanne Bier (The Perfect Couple, Bird Box).
Bullock and Kidman reprise their roles from the 1998 original, which follows orphaned sisters Sally and Gillian Owens as they are raised by their witch aunts Aunt Jet (Dianne Wiest) and Aunt Franny (Stockard Channing). After avoiding witchcraft most of their lives, the pair work to learn how to use their powers to ward off a curse that threatens women in the family over the generations from finding love, and leaves men they fall in love with dead.

“Everyone we love dies,” Bullock says at one point in the teaser. Kidman then adds: “A really horrible death. I mean, it’s just — it’s not great for the Tinder bio.” Wiest and Stockard also return to a reassembled Coven for the long-awaited sequel, along with new cast members Joey King, Lee Pace, Maisie Williams, Xolo Maridueña and Solly McLeod.
“Practical Magic 2 returns to a world steeped in moonlit mischief and powerful ancestral magic, as the Owens sisters must confront the dark curse that threatens to unravel their family once and for all in a must-see cinematic event of fun, magic and mayhem,” a synopsis from the producers states.
Based on the novel entitled The Book of Magic by Alice Hoffman, Bier directed a script penned by Akiva Goldsman and Georgia Pritchett. Denise DiNovi, Bullock and Kidman share the producer credits, while Andrew Kosove, Broderick Johnson, Donald Sabourin and Hoffman are executive producers.
Warner Bros. plans a Sept. 11, 2026 theatrical release.
