While the details and storyline for Hocus Pocus 3 have been kept quiet, Midler teased in October 2025 that she had received a script and thought it was “brilliant.” Prior to learning the plot, Parker said that she and her fellow witch sisters were “having some conversations” about development.
Disney initially announced that Hocus Pocus 3 was in the works when the president of Walt Disney Studios Motion Picture Production, Sean Bailey, told The New York Times the exciting news in June 2023.
