Will there be “Return of the Witches 3”? Bette Midler, Sarah Jessica Parker and Kathy Najimy respond

SPOILER attention!

* This article contains spoilers about the “Return of the Witches 2” ending.

We had to wait nearly 30 years for a new black flame candle to light and the three Sanderson sisters to once again take the skies of Salem on a broom (or Roomba). ‘Return of the Witches 2’ is now available on Disney +, again starring Bette Midler, Kathy Najimy and Sarah Jessica Parker in the roles of the three witches who played the people of Massachusetts and all its inhabitants.

With the time elapsed since the original film, hopes of a following were low, but now that we’ve achieved it, Would it be too much to ask for a third Sanderson coming? The three actresses talked to EW about the possibility, and their conclusion is the same as the second part: they had a lot of fun playing witches, but it would depend on the story.

Bette Midler says: “I envy other actors who have franchises, I was expecting a sequel to ‘The First Wives Club’ but we never got it. After 30 years without a sequel to ‘The Return of the Witches’, I’ve always been envious of the people who can do his favorite character more than once. The fact that we finally managed to do it, after 30 years of promoting the idea, I’m glad we did. I would love to have a franchise, especially with a character that I love to play. If there was a third one, of course I would sign up, but I don’t know how. I can’t imagine what story it might be, but I love Winifred, Sarah, Mary and our relationship. Okay for women. We stick together for good and bad, but we do it for chaos and there aren’t many women who cause that much chaos. “. At the press conference we attended, yes, he pointed out: “Maybe I’m a little old for franchises. But I’ll take advantage of what I can”.

Kathy Najimy thinks everything there is to say about the Sandersons has been said, but adds it “never say never”. However, Sarah Jessica Parker remembers an idea “cool and smart” that Kathy Najimy herself had for a possible third episode: turning it into an animation. And he commends himself to his fictional sisters when it comes to coming back for a third: “I’d like to have a chat, it just depends on what Kathy and Bette want”.

What happens at the end of “The Witches Return 2”?

Those of you who have already seen “The Return of the Witches 2” you know the film ends on a more touching note than the first, with Winifred agreeing to sacrifice herself in order to be reunited with her sisters in the afterlife. But at the end of the credits we return to Gilbert’s (Sam Richardson) shop to find that a box in the warehouse contains another black flame candle, so the door to a new return is there, close at hand. Another thing is that Disney wants to turn it on.
