It's hard to think of a more classic children's character than Winnie The Pooh, who has been beloved since his creation by A.A. Milne in the 1920s. For decades the yellow bear famed for his jolly disposition and love for honey has been the mainstay of many a kid's bedroom, decorating bedspreads and providing bedtime snuggles.

John Boyega, who was the actor behind the ex-Stormtrooper turned Resistance fighter Finn, has made it known to everyone that his time making the Star Wars sequels was not a good one. Even though Boyega had such a negative experience he is still a big Star Wars fan and keeps up with all the latest projects, most recently talking about the Obi-Wan Kenobi show that streamed on Disney Plus. One of the biggest problems John Boyega had was the lack of meaningful representation throughout the trilogy.

 which is one month away from running amok on the streaming giant.  It the latest poster, Winifred, Sarah and Mary Sanderson have a message for all the fans.

We can’t believe Hocus Pocus 2 is really happening after all these years! We’re finally going to see the Sanderson Sisters (Bette Midler, Sarah Jessica Parker, and Kathy Najimy) again as they return to wreak more havoc on Salem.
