Sandra Bullock has given Practical Magic fans a new reason to speculate. On August 30, she shared a video of Olivia Rodrigo and Stevie Nicks performing together, adding the caption, “Angel voices that are part of an upcoming film…”. She did not name the film, and neither Warner Bros. nor the singers have confirmed a connection to Practical Magic 2.
The post is a tease, not a casting or soundtrack announcement. It is still easy to see why fans made the leap: Nicks is closely tied to the original Practical Magic, while the sequel is now only weeks away from theaters.
What Bullock Actually Shared
Rodrigo brought Nicks onstage at the Daisy Chain Fields festival on August 29. They performed Fleetwood Mac’s “Landslide,” and Bullock shared that clip the following morning. Her caption says the voices belong to an upcoming film, but it does not identify the production, say whether the song is included, or confirm that a recording session took place.
That leaves several ordinary possibilities. Bullock could be hinting at a film project, sharing a song that will appear in a different movie, or simply using “film” in a way that fans cannot yet decode. The Instagram Story alone cannot settle which one it is.
Why Practical Magic Fans Made the Connection
Stevie Nicks supplied two songs to the 1998 Practical Magic soundtrack: “If You Ever Did Believe” and “Crystal.” The music became part of the movie’s identity, alongside the story of sisters Sally and Gillian Owens and the small-town house where their family’s magic keeps causing trouble. A new Nicks song would be an obvious way to connect the sequel to that history.
Rodrigo also makes sense as a fan theory because she has become one of pop music’s most visible young singers, and her voice sits in a different register from Nicks. That is a creative possibility, not evidence that either singer recorded a track for the sequel. The connection currently comes from Bullock’s caption and the timing of the post.
What has Warner Bros. actually announced?
Warner Bros.’ official trailer confirms the sequel’s main cast, Susanne Bier as director, and a North American theatrical release on September 11, 2026, with international screenings beginning September 9. The official movie material describes a new curse threatening the Owens family. It does not credit Olivia Rodrigo or Stevie Nicks on the film.
That makes Bullock’s caption interesting without turning it into evidence. The sequel already has a public rollout, and its music credits currently list supervisors and a composer rather than either singer. A soundtrack announcement would be the point where the theory becomes a real update.
Practical Magic 2 Already Has Its Main Cast and Date
The sequel brings Bullock and Nicole Kidman back as Sally and Gillian. Susanne Bier directs from a script by Akiva Goldsman, Georgia Pritchett, and Kelly Marcel, with Joey King, Maisie Williams, Xolo Maridueña, Solly McLeod, Dianne Wiest, and Stockard Channing also in the cast. Warner Bros.’ official trailer lists September 11, 2026, for North American theaters, with international screenings beginning September 9.
The story follows the Owens sisters as a new curse threatens their family. The official materials have not announced a soundtrack, a tracklist, or a cameo for Rodrigo or Nicks. The movie’s official site lists music supervisors Season Kent and Gabe Hilfer and composer Rupert Gregson-Williams, but it does not credit either singer.
Neither Singer Is Confirmed for the Soundtrack
There is no public confirmation that “Landslide” appears in Practical Magic 2. There is also no confirmation that Rodrigo and Nicks recorded a new song together, filmed a cameo, or were discussing the movie when Bullock posted the clip. Reporting on the Instagram Story says representatives for both singers and Warner Bros. had not responded.
Bullock’s post started a strong fan theory, but it did not reveal a finished song or a new cast announcement. Warner Bros. has not credited either singer, and neither artist has confirmed a connection to the sequel.
A New Song Would Fit the Sequel’s Music History
If the rumor becomes real, a Rodrigo and Nicks collaboration would give the sequel a clean link to the first movie without repeating its soundtrack. Nicks would connect the new film to the songs fans already associate with the Owens family, while Rodrigo could bring the series to listeners who discovered Practical Magic years after its original release.
The pairing would be more interesting than using a familiar song as background music. Two generations of singers sharing one performance could give the sequel its own musical identity. That is the appealing possibility, not a confirmed production detail.
What Would Confirm the Theory
The next useful evidence would be an official soundtrack announcement, a tracklist, a credit from Warner Bros., or a direct statement from Rodrigo or Nicks. A new trailer could also identify the song if it uses the recording, but a short clip would not prove who performed it. Until one of those updates appears, fans should treat the Instagram Story as a tease with an open question attached.
Bullock has not announced an Olivia Rodrigo or Stevie Nicks song. She has given fans a very plausible reason to wonder about one, just as Practical Magic 2 prepares to return Sally and Gillian to theaters.
