Directed by Anne Fletcher, the cast includes Whitney Peak, Lilia Buckingham, Belissa Escobedo, Hannah Waddingham, Tony Hale and Froy Gutierrez. Doug Jones, who played Billy Butcherson in the original version, will reprise the role in the new film. “Hocus Pocus 2” debuts September 30 exclusively on Disney+.
