Joey King's response to a "Practical Magic 2" critic who claimed her casting in the movie "completely ruined" it. A TikTok user named Christian Vitek publicly criticized King's inclusion, stating she was ruining what would have been a "beautiful, witchy fan fave movie." However, King replied to the post - which was later taken down - urging Vitek and others upset about her role to still watch the film.
"Awww no!! I do hope you like the movie, it was a true honor to be in it as a massive fan of the original myself," she wrote. "I know it's hard sometimes when legacy sequels are made and casting is different than what certain people envisioned, but I only ask that you open your mind a little and see how much fun I had making it."
Vitek later changed his tune, praising King and promising to buy multiple tickets to the film to apologize. The sequel features Nicole Kidman, Sandra Bullock, and Stockard Channing reprising their roles as the Owens sisters, alongside newcomers Joey King, Lee Pace, Maisie Williams, Xolo Maridueña, and Solly McLeod. The movie, set to release on September 11, promises a return to a world of "moonlit mischief and powerful ancestral magic."
