Which director also directed Bird Box before making Practical Magic 2?

Susanne Bier directed Bird Box before directing Practical Magic 2.

Bird Box is a 2018 post-apocalyptic horror thriller starring Sandra Bullock. Bier directed that film before taking charge of Practical Magic 2, creating a notable link between the sequel’s director and one of its returning stars.

Bier is a Danish director whose other work includes After the Wedding, In a Better World, and the television miniseries The Undoing. Her career spans intimate dramas, thrillers, television, and large-scale genre projects.

The connection does not mean Bird Box and Practical Magic 2 share the same story or franchise. Bird Box is based on Josh Malerman’s novel, while Practical Magic 2 is linked to Alice Hoffman’s The Book of Magic. The shared connection is Bier’s directing credit and Bullock’s starring role.
