Today is the day: the Sanderson sisters are back to wreak havoc across Salem once more. But what would a Hocus Pocusmovie be without that poor, cursed, lost soul, Billy Butcherson? Here's a hilarious clip of Billy's return.
Tomorrow is the big day. After 29 years, the wait will finally be over and the Sanderson sisters will be back to run amuck in Salem once again. I can't wait! Now, here's a quick look behind the scenes, a hilarious clip, and a few fabulous posters to tide you over until tomorrow.
It's going to be amazing to see Bette Midler, Sarah Jessica Parker, and Kathy Najimy back together again.
Here's the official synopsis from Disney:
Bette Midler, Sarah Jessica Parker and Kathy Najimy reunite for the highly anticipated Disney+ Original Movie “Hocus Pocus 2.” The live-action, long awaited sequel to the perennial Halloween classic, which brings back the delightfully wicked Sanderson sisters for more comedic mayhem, will debut on Disney+ on September 30.
It’s been 29 years since someone lit the Black Flame Candle and resurrected the 17th-century sisters, and they are looking for revenge. Now it is up to three high-school students to stop the ravenous witches from wreaking a new kind of havoc on Salem before dawn on All Hallow’s Eve. “Hocus Pocus 2” also stars Doug Jones, Whitney Peak, Lilia Buckingham, Belisa Escobedo, Hannah Waddingham, Tony Hale, Sam Richardson, Juju Brener, Froy Gutierrez, Taylor Paige Henderson and Nina Kitchen.
I've always loved the movie Willow. It's such a fantastical tale full of evil sorcery and monsters, sword fights and magic, and one grand adventure. Now that tale continues in a new series by the same name which is coming soon to DisneyPlus.
Willow (the series) arrives on DisneyPlus on November 30th. Willow (the movie) is currently available on DisneyPlus.
The first trailer for Disney'sStrange World looks incredible. The Clade family are in for quite the adventure.
Here's the official synopsis from Disney:
The feature film introduces a legendary family of explorers, the Clades, as they attempt to navigate an uncharted, treacherous land alongside a motley crew that includes a mischievous blob, a three-legged dog and a slew of ravenous creatures. “Inspired by classic adventure stories," said director Don Hall, “‘Strange World’ is an original animated adventure/comedy about three generations of the Clade family who overcome their differences while exploring a strange, wondrous and oftentimes hostile world.”
The voice cast includes Jake Gyllenhaal as Searcher Clade, a family man who finds himself out of his element on an unpredictable mission; Dennis Quaid as Searcher’s larger-than-life explorer father, Jaeger; Jaboukie Young-White as Searcher’s 16-year-old son, Ethan, who longs for adventure; Gabrielle Union as Meridian Clade, an accomplished pilot and Searcher’s partner in all things; and Lucy Liu as Callisto Mal, Avalonia’s fearless leader who spearheads the exploration into the strange world.
The first full trailer for Disney'sNational Treasure: Edge of History has arrived and it looks incredible. "The truth is buried with the treasure..."

On a recent trip to Seattle, we had to stop and visit the Freemont Troll. While the troll has been hanging out under the Aurora Bridge since 1990, he also appeared in a few episodes of the final season of Disney'sOnce Upon A Time.
The first trailer for Marvel'sSecret Invasion has arrived and it looks fantastic. Nick Fury has returned to Earth to help stop a Skrull Invasion, with a little help from Maria Hill, Rhodey, Everett K. Ross, and Talos. It's so cool to see all of them come together for the first time.
This Hocus Pocus 2 clip is an absolute delight. I love that the Sanderson sisters have updated their missing brooms with a Swiffer and two wayward Roombas, while Winnie gets the only proper broom, of course. Hilarious!
Hocus Pocus 2 arrives on DisneyPlus on September 30th.
The first trailer for Marvel'sWerewolf By Night has arrived and it looks marvelous. It's so film noir and a real throwback to the classic horror films, which I absolutely love!
Werewolf By Night arrives on DisneyPlus on October 7th, just in time for Halloween.
The first trailer for Disney'sDisenchanted has arrived and it looks like Giselle has been seduced by the power of the dark side. Magic always comes with a price...
Here's the official synopsis from Disney:
It has been 15 years since Giselle (Amy Adams) and Robert (Patrick Dempsey) wed, but Giselle has grown disillusioned with life in the city, so they move their growing family to the sleepy suburban community of Monroeville in search of a more fairy tale life. Unfortunately, it isn’t the quick fix she had hoped for. Suburbia has a whole new set of rules and a local queen bee, Malvina Monroe (Maya Rudolph), who makes Giselle feel more out of place than ever. Frustrated that her happily ever after hasn’t been so easy to find, she turns to the magic of Andalasia for help, accidentally transforming the entire town into a real-life fairy tale and placing her family’s future happiness in jeopardy. Now, Giselle is in a race against time to reverse the spell and determine what happily ever after truly means to her and her family.
"Disenchanted" stars Amy Adams, Patrick Dempsey, Maya Rudolph, Yvette Nicole Brown, Jayma Mays, Gabriella Baldacchino, with Idina Menzel and James Marsden.
Disenchanted arrives on DisneyPlus on November 24th.
Lock up your children because the Sanderson sisters are headed back to Salem to run amuck. A new trailer for Hocus Pocus 2 has arrived and it looks hilarious!
Hocus Pocus 2 arrives on DisneyPlus on September 30th.
I finally had the chance to visit the Chihuly Garden and Glass Museum in Seattle last weekend. The glass sculptures are incredibly stunning and absolutely gorgeous. This particular display is an Ikebana and Float Boat. I love how all of the colors reflect in the surface the boat is resting on.
The Sanderson sisters have arrived at Disneyland'sOogie Boogie Bash... well, sort of. This year, Minnie, Daisy, and Clarabelle will be taking on the roles of Winifred, Sarah, and Mary Sanderson. They're quite cute.
The countdown is on for the premiere of Hocus Pocus 2. Just 29 days to go until the Sanderson sisters are back... will there be hell to pay? Hocus Pocus 2 arrives on DisneyPlus on September 30th.
