<p>The Sanderson Sisters are back in the first ‘Hocus Pocus 2’ teaser trailer and still have a childish appetite. The famous Halloween film’s sequel, which takes place 29 years after the first one, reunites Bette Midler, Sarah Jessica Parker, and Kathy Najimy as Winifred, Sarah, and Mary Sanderson, respectively. Three high school kids, played by Whitney Peak, Belissa Escobedo, and Lilia Buckingham, are seen in the teaser scene talking about their plans for that evening.</p>

<p>Becca (Peak) and Izzy (Escobedo) visit a magic shop and recite a ritualistic prayer before realising the chanting works and the Black Flame Candle is lit. Becca (Peak) told Cassie (Buckingham): "Birthday ritual: scary movie marathon, same as every year."</p>

<p>The girls try to flee, but as they do, a crimson crack appears in the ground beneath them.&nbsp;</p>

<p>"Lock up your kids," said Winifred (Midler). "Yes, Salem. We're back!" In a nod to the scenes in ‘Hocus Pocus’ where everyone mistakenly believes the witches to be ladies simply dressing up as the witches, the villagers then greet the witches while dressed as the Sanderson Sisters.</p>

'Hocus Pocus 2' teaser trailer: The Sanderson Sisters are back with their Halloween classic after 29 years

<p>President Joe Biden celebrates artists including Bette Midler, Joni Mitchell and Lorne Michaels on Sunday at the Kennedy Center Honors, bringing back presidential participation in the annual ceremony skipped by Republican Donald Trump.<br />
<br />
Singer Justino Díaz and Motown founder Berry Gordy round out the group of artists selected by the Kennedy Center for top honors this year at a show that had been upended by politics and the restrictions of the COVID-19 pandemic.<br />
<br />
Biden, a Democrat who took over from Trump in January, held a black-tie ceremony for the five honorees at the White House ahead of the event in Washington, the sort of glamorous celebration that has become rare in a White House that has eschewed large gatherings in the COVID-19 era.<br />
<br />
Trump did not hold such a reception during his four years in office and did not attend the show at the Kennedy Center itself.<br />
<br />
The arts community largely did not object to that absence. Singer and actress Cher, an honoree in 2018 and an outspoken Trump critic, said she would have had to accept the award in a bathroom if Trump had come.<br />
<br />
The awards recognize a lifetime of achievement in the performing arts.<br />
<br />
Midler, a singer and actress, has received Grammy, Emmy, Tony and Golden Globe awards for a career spanning decades, with album sales exceeding 30 million around the world.<br />
<br />
Singer-songwriter Mitchell, a native Canadian known for songs such as “Both Sides, Now" and "Big Yellow Taxi," is a multi-Grammy recipient and an inductee into the Rock &amp; Roll Hall of Fame.<br />
<br />
Michaels, also a native of Canada, is the creator and executive producer of the long-running NBC sketch comedy show "Saturday Night Live."<br />
<br />
"If you can`t laugh at yourself, we`re in real trouble, and you make me laugh at myself a lot," Biden said in remarks addressed to Michaels, noting the show has used seven comics to play him over the years.<br />
<br />
Comedy and other art forms and cultural exports help the United States lead by the power of its example worldwide, the president said.<br />
<br />
"Throughout my career, I`ve met nearly every world leader," he said. "And I`ll tell you, not everyone sees satire that way. You`d all be in jail."<br />
<br />
Diaz, a bass-baritone opera singer from Puerto Rico, has performed with opera companies around the world.<br />
<br />
Gordy, a songwriter and record producer from Detroit, founded the Motown record label that became synonymous with a jazz- and blues-influenced musical sound popularized by Black artists including Diana Ross, Stevie Wonder, Marvin Gaye and Lionel Richie, whose careers he helped shape. Gordy is also a Rock &amp; Roll Hall of Fame inductee.</p>
