Sandra Bullock and Nicole Kidman prepare their most magical comeback yet
Released in 1998, “Les Ensorceleuses” has never left the hearts of fans. In 2026, the magic comes back to life with a second opus already shrouded in a cult aura.
The Owens sisters return… under a full moon
It’s now official: Sandra Bullock and Nicole Kidman will reprise their roles in The Bewitched 2, scheduled for release on September 17, 2026. Announced by Warner Bros. via an incantatory teaser, the news set social networks ablaze: “Let the spell begin to mix…” whispered the two stars, reviving the spellbinding spirit of the original film.
This return is no mere nostalgia effect: over the years, the film has established itself as an autumn pop reference, at the crossroads of the supernatural and the sororal.
A sequel inspired by Hoffman’s novels
The script is being kept under wraps, but hints suggest that it will be inspired by the literary sequels toAlice Hoffman‘s Practical Magic. The film could explore the origins of the Owens line or the modern repercussions of the family curse. A potentially intergenerational approach, weaving together ancient heritage and contemporary issues.
A star-studded cast and a stronger team
In addition to Sandra Bullock and Nicole Kidman, Naomi Watts is set to join the project. The two leading actresses are also producers, ensuring creative fidelity to the original universe. The director is Susanne Bier(The Undoing, Bird Box), and the screenwriter is Akiva Goldsman(A Beautiful Man, I Am Legend), a writer accustomed to worlds on the edge of reality.
A well-chosen date, far from the hustle and bustle of Halloween
Scheduled ahead of the October blockbuster season, Les Ensorceleuses 2 aims to capture attention before the tumult. But it will have to contend with another supernatural production: a new version of Resident Evil. The duel promises to be intense.
Will the magic be there?
All the ingredients are there: undiminished complicity, a cult universe and an inspired director. All that’s left is to heat up the margaritas and get out the grimoires: the cinematic sabbath is imminent.
