Cast & Characters of Practical Magic 2
Meet the Oscar-winning stars, beloved eccentric aunts, next-generation witches, and visionary creators reuniting to bring the Owens sisterhood back to the big screen.
The Owens Sisters
Sandra Bullock
The grounded, protective older sister whose deep yearning for a normal life is constantly challenged by the magical blood running through her veins. Sally continues to honor her ancestral botanical knowledge while raising the next generation.
Academy Award winner Sandra Bullock returns to one of her most beloved, enduring roles as Sally Owens. Bullock also serves as an executive producer on the sequel through her Fortis Films banner.
“Always throw spilt salt over your left shoulder, keep rosemary by your garden gate, plant lavender for luck, and fall in love whenever you can.”
Nicole Kidman
The wild, passionate younger sister whose reckless quest for love once invited dark supernatural danger into the Owens house. Older, wiser, yet fiercely rebellious, Gillian remains Sally’s unbreakable counterpart.
Academy Award and Emmy winner Nicole Kidman reprises her iconic role as the free-spirited Gillian Owens, producing alongside Bullock under Blossom Films.
“You brought me back... You’ve always brought me back.”
