George Clooney & Julia Roberts

Fans of both actors are wildly excited for their newest upcoming movie together called Ticket to Paradise that will be released October 21, 2022.

For this upcoming fall season, fans are finally getting what they always hoped for— a sequel to the 1993 film, Hocus Pocus!
It has been 29 years since the cast have shared a screen together, but they each will be reprising their roles as the Sanderson sisters in the sequel!
“I am so grateful to be able to play a part in bringing these witches back to life,” Fletcher said in a statement on Fox News.“This is a movie for everyone, from the fans who grew up with the first film to the next generation of viewers, and I can’t wait to get started.”
