  "account": "Sandra Bullock has not yet decided on producing a third installment of \"Practical Magic,\" but revealed that it could happen depending on the success of the second film. The Oscar-winning actress, who stars and produces the highly anticipated sequel for 1998's \"Practical Magic,\" made the comment during a recent interview with Vanity Fair. Bullock referenced her onscreen daughters Joey King and Maisie Williams, who play Kylie and Antonia Owens respectively, stating that they would be \"passed the torch\" if the film takes off. The sequel, which arrives 28 years after the first film, sees Bullock and Nicole Kidman returning as Sally and Gillian Owens, a pair of witch sisters sentenced to see their true loves die young. The film's logline suggests a multi-generational family of witches, cursed to be loveless for centuries, trying to break the spell by confronting dark secrets and sacrificing for each other. However, Bullock assured fans that viewers do not need to watch the first film to enjoy the sequel, despite some Easter eggs being hidden away. She also expressed appreciation for Joey King reaching out to her, as no one from the original film had done so upon her replacement. Director Susanne Bier defended the decision to recast the role, stating it was not personal as the characters are young adults. \"Practical Magic 2\" is set to release in theaters on September 10.",
