    Excited for what could come, one fan asked if there was ‘any chance of a sequel?!’, to which Sarah said: ‘we have all said yes. Now we wait. X’ While when another fan asked if the trio would be up for ’round 2′, she responded ‘sure’ and ‘we await instructions.’

    The original 1993 film about a trio of 17th-century witches wreaking havoc in modern-day Salem, Massachusetts, stars Bette Midler, Sarah Jessica Parker and Kathy Najimy. The film was directed by Kenny Ortega and based on a screenplay by Mick Garris and Neil Cuthbert.

    “Workaholics” writer Jen D’Angelo is reportedly writing the sequel and has been tasked with finding a way to bring back the original cast of Bette Midler as Winifred, Sarah Jessica Parker as Sarah, and Kathy Najimy as Mary.
