Three screenwriters are credited for Practical Magic 2.
The screenplay credits go to Akiva Goldsman, Georgia Pritchett, and Kelly Marcel. Goldsman was attached during the film’s early development, while Pritchett later joined the writing team. Kelly Marcel is also listed in the completed screenplay credit.
This is separate from the film’s source credit: Practical Magic 2 is based on Alice Hoffman’s 2021 novel The Book of Magic, but Hoffman is not listed as one of the screenplay writers. Similarly, Denise Di Novi, Sandra Bullock, and Nicole Kidman are credited as producers rather than screenwriters.
Counting the names in the screenplay credit gives three writers. The number refers to credited writers on the film, not the number of authors associated with Hoffman’s wider Practical Magic book series.
