The coven is crumbling and it’s messier than a glitter bomb at Coachella.
So here’s the tea — or should we say, potion — Evan Rachel Wood, aka the OG witchy queen Kylie Owens from the 1998 spooky-sister classic Practical Magic, just revealed she will NOT be popping up in the upcoming sequel. That’s right. NO return of the witchy daughter who gives ✨mystic Gen Z vibes✨.
In a dramatic Instagram Story that low-key felt like a breakup text from the universe, Evan (37, witchcore icon, Scorpio probably) said:
“I am getting asked about this a lot, so I’ll just clear it up now…”
👀 We leaned in. We clutched our crystals.
“I was not asked to come back and be in the #PracticalMagical sequel.”
EXCUSE ME WHAT. Who’s running this movie, a bunch of cursed squirrels??
And if you thought she was gonna pull a “no comment,” think again, because Queen Witch Evan was READY with the receipts:
“I offered my services, even if it was one scene or one line. I was told they are re-casting.”
Translation: She said “hire me,” and they said “new phone, who dis?”
“I’m sorry to disappoint the fans,” she added, basically giving us all a big sad witch hug from across the astral plane. “It was not in my control or my choice.”
Evan then dropped the most poetic mic ever:
“I would have happily rejoined my sisters.”
🥹 Someone get this woman a spell for justice. Or at least a limited-edition Hot Topic cauldron.
For those who forgot (you’re dead to us, but okay), Evan played Kylie Owens, the oldest daughter of Sandra Bullock’s character Sally. She was part sassy teen, part cursed legacy, and 100% mood. Like, her eyeliner alone deserved an Oscar.
But apparently, Hollywood said “abracadabra” and made her vanish. ✨💨
So now the question is: WHO is taking her place? And can they even handle the legacy of WITCHY NOSTALGIA and chaotic girlhood energy that Evan brought?
Let us pray. To the moon. And maybe Nicole Kidman’s red hair.
Anyway, Practical Magic 2 is shaping up to be less “midnight margaritas with the girls” and more “awkward family reunion where your fave cousin wasn’t invited.”
More updates as the coven continues to CRACK.
