The 1993 film Hocus Pocus, starring Bette Midler, Sarah Jessica Parker, and Kathy Najimy, is the latest classic property set to be be sacrificed to feed the never ending Hollywood reboot churn.

Disney Channel To Reboot Hocus Pocus As A TV Movie

Deadline has the scoop on Disney Channel's plans to reboot Hocus Pocus as a TV movie. The Royals' Scarlett Lacey will write the script, and original film producer David Kirschner will produce, but Kenny Ortega, who directed the original and also directed films like High School Musical, is reportedly not involved. Neither, says the report, are the original cast.

No other information on when this is expected to air, but the plan seems to be in motion, so it's probably too late to cast a curse on Disney to prevent them from rebooting this classic.

And so, Jude Terror has moved on to a more important mission: turning Bleeding Cool into a pro wrestling dirt sheet!
