Owen Gleiberman Chief Film CriticThe Oscar campaign for “CODA” has touted the film as “history-making.” If you wanted to be a literal-minded curmudgeon about it, you could say that the history it’s talking about was already made — when Marlee Matlin, in 1986, became the first deaf performer to win an Academy Award for best actress, for her great, ardent, wounded performance in “Children of a Lesser God.” Matlin deserved to win (the other nominated actresses that year were Jane Fonda for “The Morning After,” Sissy Spacek for “Crimes of the Heart,” Kathleen Turner for “Peggy Sue Got Married,” and Sigourney Weaver for “Aliens,” which is the only one I’d put in Matlin’s league).Nevertheless, history works in waves. Sidney Poitier made history by becoming the first Black actor to be a Hollywood star, as well as the first to win an Academy Award for best actor (in 1963, for “Lilies of the Field”).

Naya Rivera’s family against Ventura County, California, following the tragic drowning of the actress at age 33.The lawsuit was filed in November 2020 by Rivera’s ex-husband Ryan Dorsey, on behalf of their 6-year-old son Josey, alleging that the actress’ death was preventable, as her boat did not comply with US Coast Guard safety standards.Describing that the boat “was not equipped with a safely accessible ladder, adequate rope, an anchor, a radio or any security mechanisms to prevent swimmers from being separated from their boats.”Now their family attorney, Amjad M. Khan has declared that “all parties have entered into a global settlement.”“Through this settlement, Josey will receive just compensation for having to endure the drowning of his beloved mother at Lake Piru,” Attorney Khan stated, explaining that while “the tragic loss of Josey’s mother can never truly be overcome, we are very pleased that the monetary settlement will significantly assist Josey with his life beyond this tragedy.”It was also reported that court documents referenced Lake Piru’s “deadly history,” claiming that there was not “a single sign anywhere” that warned about “the lake’s strong currents, low visibility, high winds, changing water depths, underwater caves, ledges and drop offs, or the trees, brush and other debris that congest its waters due to the vastly changing water levels and winds.”The ‘Glee’ star was confirmed dead on July 13, 2020, after an unsuccessful search-and-rescue operation was conducted, later changing into a recovery mission following an extensive search.

I don't want to encourage you to get your hopes up too high, because Hollywood has an awful habit of nurturing your pop culture dreams and expectations before popping them like a balloon on a whim...but it really does sound like a Hocus Pocus sequel is going to happen. There's already a writer, Jen D’Angelo, and a director, Adam Shankman, on board, as Variety reports; what's more, all three Sanderson sisters—Bette Midler, Sarah Jessica Parker, and Kathy Najimy—are reportedly up for reprising their roles.

Diehard fans of Hocus Pocus should not give up hope because it seems like Sarah Jessica Parker just teased the sequel! As you might know, a couple of months have passed since anyone’s heard any updates on the project. However, at least it was known for sure that Adam Shankman is totally in when it comes to directing the sequel! And now, Sarah Jessica Parker shared something new about it while on SiriusXM’s Radio Andy! As a teaser for the upcoming episode of Quarantined with Bruce, the actress shared during the interview that ‘I think that it is something Bette Midler, Kathy Najimy and I are all very hospitable to the idea.

Fans of the 1993 comedy Hocus Pocus have been longing for years for a sequel. For star Sarah Jessica Parker, she says that revisiting the film’s next chapter alongside her fellow witch sisters Bette Midler, 74, and Kathy Najimy, 63, sounds like a “fun idea.” The 55-year-old appeared on SiriusXM’s Radio Andy show on May 28, in which Andy Cohen‘s best pal, restaurateur Bruce Bozzi, was filling in as host. Since he’s also close pals with SJP, he asked her, “Do you think there would be a sequel to Hocus Pocus? Because it seems to be on peoples’ radar.”
