Sandra Bullock’s Sally is seen navigating life with her daughters, while Nicole Kidman’s Gillian Owens appears to be leading a peaceful life with a cat. However, their calm is soon disrupted when they are pulled into dealing with a new crisis. Aidan Quinn explains why he’s not in Practical Magic 2 In a red carpet conversation posted by SPIN 1038, an Irish radio station, Quinn was asked whether he would return to play Gary in Practical Magic 2.

He played the state investigator, who suspected Gillian of Jimmy’s disappearance in the 1998 movie. Answering the question, the actor said, “No, I wasn’t asked. I would have said yes, but I wasn’t asked.” The interviewer then asked him what his response would be if he were asked to reprise his role for the upcoming sequel.
