The hour is nigh for the return of the Sanderson Sisters as Hocus Pocus 2 gears up for an spellbinding release on Disney Plus. It’s been almost 30 sickening years since the original movie swept audiences off their broomsticks in 1993, and while trepidation – and expectation – is high for the long-awaited sequel, actor Doug Jones, who plays Winifred’s long-dead ex-boyfriend Billy Butcherson, is here to assure fans the nostalgia is still very much alive in the sequel. 

In speaking with Entertainment Weekly, Butcherson along with the movie’s director Anne Fletcher and stars, Bette Midler, Sarah Jessica Parker, and Kathy Najimy, addressed the elephant in the room: the 21st century. To be sure, a movie that took place before cell phones ruined plot and social media dominated the conversation will experience a fair amount of strain in trying to incorporate such things, but Butcherson maintains that the modern touches in Hocus Pocus 2 offer a little bit of something for everyone.
