Could HocusPocus3 be on the horizon? Bette Midler sure hopes so 👀 'I've always been envious of people who get to do their favorite character more than once. [...] I'd love to have a franchise... If there was a third one, of course I'd sign on...' 😮🙌
Hocus Pocus 2 star Bette Midler talks returning to the franchise for a potential Hocus Pocus 3. The upcoming sequel to 1993's Hocus Pocus comes nearly 30 years after the first installment. Centering on three witches collectively known as the Sanderson sisters, Winifred , Mary , and Sarah , the original film is set in 1990s Salem. In the sequel, the Sandersons will be unleashed once again and return to Salem three decades later to wreak havoc once again.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY The sequel will star the original trio of witches as well as Billy Butcherson , the zombie who was once Winifred's unfaithful lover, and the franchise will change directors from Disney vet Kenny Ortega to Dumplin' director Anne Fletcher.
I don't know. I'm envious of other actors who have franchises, and I was hoping for a sequel to First Wives Club, but we never got that. After 30 years with no sequel to Hocus Pocus, I've always been envious of people who get to do their favorite character more than once. The fact that we got to do this finally, after 30 years of promoting the idea, I'm glad we got to do it. I'd love to have a franchise — especially a character I love playing.
Midler's comments confirm her love for the franchise, as well as her dedication to the character of Winifred Sanderson. It's encouraging to see an actor so passionate about her role, especially with the many other impressive titles in Midler's catalog. Her appreciation for the feminist element of the spooky films elevates the movies from simple seasonal kids' fare to a unique representation of strong female friendships and sisterhood.
After the couple of decades in between Hocus Pocus and Hocus Pocus 2, it makes sense that Midler is uncertain about the possibility of a threequel. However, her expressed interest in reprising the character once again will likely go a long way in bolstering fans' calls for a Hocus Pocus 3 after the sequel's release. Of course, the reception and overall performance of the sequel will be the main indicator of whether a third film is even possible.
