Will We See A HOCUS POCUS 3? Producer Teases Possible Spinoff For Franchise

Disney’s HOCUS POCUS 2 was a massive hit for the companies streaming series, Disney+ this Halloween season. The film set streaming records and proved that the franchise is as popular as ever. With that comes the looming possibility of more Sanderson Sisters films or spinoffs for Disney to dish out, but will they?

In a new interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Hocus Pocus 2 producer Adam Shankman teases the potential for follow-up projects, which could center on the sequel’s new characters. Hocus Pocus 2 introduced Whitney Peak as Becca, Belissa Escobedo as Izzy, and Lilia Buckingham as Cassie, a new group of sisters who come together to vanquish the Sandersons.

Shankman tells THR, “[Director] Anne [Fletcher] I think handled [Becca’s character arc] really, really beautifully. We went back and forth on how that was going to work, if it was going to work, forever, and Anne was just like, ‘This is what we’re going to do.’ And I think it’s great. And it creates a lot of excitement about potential spinoffs.”

As we mentioned at the beginning of this writing, we wouldn’t be surprised if Disney didn’t jump at the chance to expand Hocus Pocus into a full fledged universe of its own. Time will tell.
