The highly anticipated sequel to the cult hit Hocus Pocus is coming to Disney+.
Back in March, we reported that Hairspray director Adam Shankman was on board to direct Hocus Pocus 2 for Disney+. Bette Midler, Sarah Jessica Parker, and Kathy Najimy were expected to return as the witches for the sequel, but nothing had been confirmed.

After eight seasons, The CW's Arrow will come to a close with next week's episode, titled "Fadeout", directed by James Bamford and written by Marc Guggenheim and Beth Schwartz.

MacLaine has played many characters, but in Noelle, one of the first Disney + original films, she takes on a role unlike any other she’s done before- a nanny who happens to be an elf. Polly (MacLaine) has been Noelle’s nanny her whole …
There are some big changes coming to The CW, like a brand new take on Superman & Lois and a prequel series set in the world of The 100, but not all the changes bring new shows to the network. Arrow, the superhero series that redefined the way comic book characters were portrayed on TV, is coming to an end. And while that will certainly be a bittersweet moment for all involved, there's one change that should have fans everywhere ecstatic: Felicity Smoak is coming back.
