This film is so inconic to my childhood that i hope they dont reboot, sequel or do anything with it! - its a great movie and its got some nostalgic value for alot of people, one of those films that plays every Halloween and if they made a sequel i think it may reuin it, the kids from the film are all grown up now and i doubt they could get them to reprise them! knowing disney they would probably stick some of there home grown Disney Stars in it and ruin it! lol
just a note for the OP also;
Hocus Pocus started life as a script for a special
original film for the
Disney Channel, to be produced by one of the smaller studios owned by
The Walt Disney Company. The script, however, caught the eye of Walt Disney Studios, who decided that the film was strong enough to carry well-known names and to attract a cinema audience. The idea to cast
Bette Midler was partly inspired by Midler's
Golden Globe-nominated performance in a milestone motion picture for The Walt Disney Company on its
Touchstone Pictures line,
Down and Out in Beverly Hills. Midler, who plays the central antagonist of the film, is quoted as saying that "
Hocus Pocus was the most fun I'd had in my career up to that point."[
found this on wiki;
In July 2014, it was announced that Disney was developing a supernatural-themed film about witches, and that
Tina Fey was on board as a producer and star. However,
Deadline debunked rumors that the film was a sequel to
Hocus Pocus.
Bette Midler said she is ready and willing to return. She also says her co-stars Sarah Jessica Parker and Kathy Najimy are interested in reprising the roles of the Sanderson sisters as well. Disney has yet to greenlight any sequel.
