Music was a key part of the the first Practical Magic film becoming something of a cult classic, with Harry Nilsson’s Coconut famously featuring in one particularly memorable Midnight Margarita-fuelled scene.
Choosing the right songs for sequel Practical Magic 2 – which is now showing in UK cinemas – was therefore always going to be a vital task, and one that returning star Sandra Bullock had a major hand in.
“She’s an executive producer on the [film’s soundtrack] album,” co-producer Denise Di Novi shared in a recent interview with People, calling the actor’s work in shaping the movie’s music “integral”.

“We knew the soundtrack from the first album was a tremendous success and still is and we really felt the pressure to have this movie use songs in the way that the first movie did,” Di Novi explained.
“[To] have a soundtrack where people were, like, ‘I have to download that. I have to get that.'”
