Practical Magic 2
In conversation with Entertainment Weekly, Practical Magic 2 producer Denise Di Novi promised the upcoming sequel will remain “very faithful” to the original film.
I think [fans are] going to be very pleased. We’re going to be very faithful. We’re cognizant to how important those characters and that movie are to so many people. We’re not going to reinvent the wheel. We’re going to draw from Alice Hoffmann’s books, as the first movie did, and we’re going to be true to the chronology of how many years later it is.
