Evan Rachel Wood Clarifies Comments About ‘Practical Magic 2,’ Explains Why It Didn’t Work to Bring Her Back

Evan Rachel Wood is speaking out for the “final” time about being left out of Practical Magic 2.

The actress played Kylie Owens in the original 1998 movie, the daughter of Sandra Bullock‘s character Sally Owens. Both her and actress Alexandra Artrip, who played her younger sister Antonia, were not invited back for the sequel.

Earlier this week, Evan was asked about not being asked back for the sequel and her role being taken over by Joey King.

“I read the book, and it seems like they’re not following the book,” she told ET. “I think, in the book, it would have made sense to bring me back. I think in the way they’re approaching it, the way they’re doing it, it didn’t make sense. We bonded with that cast so much as children. And so, to miss out on the opportunity to look at that cast and look at that house as an adult and see the history in our eyes is something that can’t be faked.”

“I’m sad that that doesn’t get to exist, especially for the fans,” she continued. “But I wish them all the best and obviously wish Joey King the best. And I hope she had a great time and I still have really fond memories of being in the original.”
