After months of speculation, it’s now official: Joey King is heading to Coupeville, Washington, to film the much-anticipated sequel Practical Magic 2. Known for The Kissing Booth and other popular projects, King will share the screen with Sandra Bullock and Nicole Kidman, who are reprising their iconic roles.
A Look Back at the Original
The 1998 cult classic, adapted from Alice Hoffman’s novel, introduced audiences to magical sisters Sally (Bullock) and Gillian Owens (Kidman). Bound by a generational curse that dooms the men they fall in love with, the sisters navigated themes of family, love, and witchcraft.
Now, fans are eager to know what awaits them in the sequel—and how Joey King’s character will weave into the storyline.
Who Will Joey King Play?
The studio is keeping details tightly under wraps. However, King’s striking new red hair has sparked speculation. Could she be stepping into the role of Kylie, Sally’s daughter, first played by Evan Rachel Wood? Or might she portray Gillian’s daughter? For now, the mystery remains unsolved.
Filming in Full Swing
Production is already well underway. King, no stranger to bold beauty transformations (she once shaved her head for a role), seems fully committed to the character. She unveiled her new red locks on Instagram with the caption: “There’s a little witch in all of us.”
The only question left is: which witch will she be?
