We've all got a little witch in us.
In a exclusive clip shared with People ahead of the 4K UHD release of Practical Magic, stars Sandra Bullock and Nicole Kidman shared some insight into their characters of the beloved 1998 film. The pair portrayed sisters and witchy duo Sally and Gillian Owens, respectively, in the film and are also set to reprise their roles in the long-awaited sequel Practical Magic 2, out later this year.
"Gillian is really brave. I always wish I could be more like that in life," said Bullock. "She knows what she is. She embraces what she is, and she fully leans into it."
It's a trait that Bullock said can be found in Kidman as well.
"She's playing a character, but you are seeing a lot of who Nicole really is," she said. "She's free and wild and adventurous and is always doing something."
Kidman explained that her character "[doesn't] want to reject who I am and what I am, and I love being who I am," adding that Gillian "has her own barriers and walls, which is, 'Well, I'm just gonna have fun, and I know I'll never be able to experience love or have love, but that's okay.'"
In the clip, producer Denise Di Novi also shared why many viewers resonated with Bullock's character.
"Sally is very different [than Gillian] in that she has always yearned for that deep, true soulmate love, and she found it, but she lost the man that she fell in love with and people really related to her," Di Novi said, adding, "Sandra Bullock brought so much emotion to Sally, and I was surprised by the depth of that emotion and how it affected people."
