Sisters who are also witches are cursed in Practical Magic. The filmmakers wanted a real witch to consult on the 1998 movie. But things backfired, and a real witch cursed the movie, according to director Griffin Dunne. Dunne, 70, explained what went wrong and a line he wrote into the movie to address the falling out.

"I’m going to put a curse on you. I’m putting a curse on this movie, and I’m putting a curse on Griffin," the witch threatened, according to Dunne. She left a voicemail about cursing them, then spoke in tongues.
"It inspired one of Aiden [Quinn’s] lines: 'Curses only have power when you believe them,'" the director explained. "I decided I’m just not going to believe in this. It was creepy. If I’d watched the scene in a horror movie, I would be freaked by it. But this is real life."
The first movie was about a family of witches cursed from finding love. The sequel will be their journey to work together and break it.
The teaser trailer for Practical Magic 2 shows Sandra BullockandNicole Kidman back as the Owen sisters. They warn Lee Pace's character that people around them die. It looks like there is a new generation in the family with Maisie Williams and Joey King. This time, Susanne Bier directed the film.
The movie will be released on Friday, September 11, 2026.
