With the newly formed streaming service `Disney +,` Disney is ready to sink its teeth in the OTT platform business. With already a wide and impressive array of series and documentaries lined up for the November premiere, we bet it will give all other streaming services a good run for the money.
Disney is said to be preparing a sequel to their witch-classic `Hocus Pocus` for Disney + TV. The responsibility of this sequel has landed on the shoulders of Jen D'Angelo (Workaholics) who has also been asked for a way of bringing back the trio of spell-casting witches played by Bette Midler, Sarah Jessica Parker, and Kathy Najimy.
Released in 1993, `Focus Pocus` was written by Neil Cuthbert and Mick Garris and directed by Kenny Ortega. The movie was a story of Three witches resurrect after 300 years to exact revenge and begin a reign of terror after Max, a young boy who moves to Salem with his family, lights a cursed Candle of Black Flame.
