The Owen sisters may be back in “Practical Magic 2” 28 years after Nicole Kidman and Sandra Bullock first played the sibling witches, but that doesn’t mean the first movie’s outing doesn’t still sting a little.
The original “Practical Magic” was a critical and box office failure before earning cult classic status over the last almost three decades.
“We thought, ‘This is going to be such an amazing film. People are going to love it,’” Bullock recalled. “And then it got quiet. It got quiet. [They] were like, ‘How many women in a film do you need? How many tones do you need? What kind of film is this?’”
“And here’s the thing that I really wanna bring up and I bring it up ad nauseam: Griffin Dunne created this world with us,” Bullock said, referring to the first film’s director.
Kidman added, “And he loved us and he let us shine.”
