Doug Jones has addressed his possible return as Billy Butcherson, the zombie ex-boyfriend of witch Winnie Sanderson (Bette Midler), in the upcoming Hocus Pocus 3. The original 1993 movie was a theatrical disappointment but became a cult classic off the back of Halloween viewing, prompting a Disney+ legacy sequel in 2022 featuring the return of Jones and Midler along with Sarah Jessica Parker and Kathy Najimy as Winnie’s sisters Sarah and Mary. No cast members have been officially confirmed for the upcoming Hocus Pocus 3, though returning director Anne Fletcher and screenwriter Jen D’Angelo are attached.
