Midler, who essayed the role of the eldest sister Winifred "Winnie" Sanderson in the original, was the one to initiate Hocus Pocus 2. In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, Midler said: "Even when it became a phenomenon, [a sequel] wasn't considered. Ten years on, when I started seeing the returns, I was surprised, and I started making calls."

She told Entertainment Weekly that the three actors would get on a conference call "with lots of snacks, and we'd talk over narratives and character arcs." Najimy added: "We were able to give them our two cents, and what the writer and studio came up with was difficult, because you can't take something that was so successful and stray too far from it."

I think Bette was the only [one] who had conversations. [For me] there were moments where it came up and I was asked about it, or something happened on social media that I'd respond to. I'd always say, 'Yeah, sure,' but I can't confess to being involved in putting it together." More information about Hocus Pocus 2
