Actor Omri Katz, who played Maximilian "Max" Dennison in the original 1993 Hocus Pocus, recently shared his thoughts on the possibility of his character's return in the upcoming third installment. In the first film, Max and his friends accidentally summon the Sanderson Sisters, three mischievous witches who threaten to steal Max's little sister's life force. While the original cast members Bette Midler, Kathy Najimy, and Sarah Jessica Parker returned for the sequel, Katz was notably absent. However, in a recent interview with EW, Katz expressed his excitement for Hocus Pocus 3 and his willingness to reprise his role if given the opportunity.
"I can't wait for the new film! It's amazing to see this franchise still thriving after 30 years."

Details surrounding Hocus Pocus 3 remain scarce as the project remains in early development. However, fans have been speculating about the film's potential storyline. The previous installment saw Winifred accidentally erasing her sisters before being turned to dust and reunited with them by the new young coven. While the ending seemed conclusive, the appearance of a foreboding crow hints at the possibility of an even more formidable villain making a return. Until the screenplay is complete, casting announcements and further plot details will have to remain under wraps.
In the opening scene of Hocus Pocus 2, viewers are taken back in time to witness the Sanderson Sisters' initial exposure to the world of witchcraft by Mother Witch (Hannah Waddingham). After she transforms from a crow to her human form, Mother Witch gifts the sisters the Book upon sensing Winifred's strength. If Mother Witch becomes the main antagonist in the sequel, the new protagonists in Salem will need every advantage they can muster to defeat her formidable sorcery. As for the original cast returning to rescue Salem, it remains to be seen as Hocus Pocus 3 is likely several years away.
