Nicole Kidman and Sandra Bullock brought a little magic to Leicester Square on Wednesday night as they reunited for the European premiere of Practical Magic 2.
Almost three decades after starring together in the 1998 cult classic, the pair were back on the carpet as witchy sisters Gillian and Sally Owens for the hotly anticipated sequel.
The original film followed the Owens sisters as they navigated love, loss and the complications of being born into a family of witches cursed in matters of the heart.
This time around, Sally and Gillian find themselves facing a multi-generational curse threatening the next generation of their family.
Kidman, 59, embraced her longtime co-star as they posed together on the blue carpet, wearing a shimmering white gown embellished with gold chain and pearl detailing.
Bullock and Kidman were joined by the film’s younger generation of stars, including The Kissing Booth actress Joey King.
King, 27, leaned into the film’s romantic, witchy aesthetic in a pale blue mesh gown layered over a pastel yellow two-piece while Game of Thrones star Maisie Williams was also among those walking the carpet, opting for a simple burgundy gown.
Original Practical Magic stars Stockard Channing and Dianne Wiest also joined the celebrations, marking another reunion nearly 30 years after they first appeared as the eccentric Owens aunts, Frances and Jet.
They were joined by fellow sequel cast members Solly McLeod and Xolo Maridueña as Leicester Square welcomed the Owens family back for another dose of magic.
In the screening Bullock reflected on bringing the European premiere to London, thanking the city for helping capture the magic of the first film for the sequel.
