Dreams of seeing Bette Midler and Sarah Jessica Parker team up once again have been dashed. Rumors went around yesterday that famed comedy writer Tina Fey was developing a sequel to ABC Family's third favorite Halloween movie Hocus Pocus. Those simply are not true.
The Tracking Board was the site that first started the rumor in question. A rep for Fey told Variety that “Their report is not accurate — Tina is not developing a sequel to Hocus Pocus.”
Deadline, however, says that Fey IS making a witch movie. Just not about these witches.
The sequel to the 1993 cult movie will have to remain in my dreams along with my secret crush for a young Sarah Jessica Parker dressed as a witch. Yeah, I didn't know any better back then. She was a looker.
