Nicole Kidman and Sandra Bullock finally explained why it took 28 years for the sequel to "Practical Magic" to be produced. The actresses participated in a morning video call along with Joey King and Maisie Williams, stars of the new film "Practical Magic: Spellbound." The session began in a relaxed manner, with the actresses chatting about their recent activities: Kidman had just returned from a walk, Bullock was taking care of her dog with pancreatitis, King helped her mother recover from dental surgery the previous night, and Williams was trying out a new retinol routine.
Kidman joked that it was time for "breakfast with the witches," referring to the group of actresses assembled. The original 1998 film featured the two actresses playing Gillian and Sally Owens, witch sisters whose family is cursed by a generational curse that kills any man they love. At the time, neither Kidman nor Bullock had yet won an Oscar, an award both would later achieve in their careers.
The new film blends various cinematic genres, just as the original did. The sequel brings the original actresses back to the roles of the Owens sisters, maintaining the essence that made the first film a cult classic among fans. The film promises to once again explore the magical universe of the sisters with elements of romance, comedy, and drama.
