Salem, tremble, the witches are back! the long-awaited Hocus Pocus 2 finally landed on Disney+, thus kicking off the exciting season of terror!
With the fever of the premiere of the film, the fans from the original 1993 cult classic couldn’t help but compare what the creepy Winifred sisters, Mary and Sarah Sanderson, played by Bette Midler, Kathy Najimy and Sarah Jessica Parker, respectively, look like today.
If your eagle eyes helped you notice that Mary Sanderson’s smile looked different in the Disney+ sequel, Kathy Najimy herself has the explanation.
Let’s remember that in the first movie, Mary has a crooked smile, a detail that Kathy improvised during the filming of the tape. Although in the just released sequel, the actress continues with her misshapen smile, this time it shines on the other side of her face.
As Kathy Najimy, 65, explained to Entertainment Weekly, The fact that her iconic smile is on the opposite side is because it is very difficult for her to do it the same way she did 30 years ago.
Also, Kathy, who said she knows the fans they’ll “dive into” details about why, noting that the side swapping is explained in the sequel for those looking for answers.
We can justify it because there’s a scene at the beginning where Winnie slaps me and my mouth goes the other way. And then he slaps me again, and he goes to the other side and stays that way.
the long awaited Hocus Pocus 2, directed by Anne Fletcher, premiered on Disney+ on September 30. So far, it seems that the fans they are satisfied with the sequel, in which a pair of high school students light the fearsome black flame candle, bringing the evil Sanderson sisters back to Salem once more. If you haven’t seen it, what are you waiting for?!
