Warner Bros. and Alcon said their sequel Practical Magic 2 opened at No. 1 domestically, earning $30 million in the United States and Canada and $16 million in other markets for a $46 million worldwide opening, well short of its $75 million budget. The film took $13 million on its opening, according to Variety, and generated $3.
5-4 million in preview screenings, as reported by Deadline. Warner Bros. had earlier projected a global opening of $58-63 million, with about $40 million from North America, and The Hollywood Reporter noted the opening domestic total of roughly $30 million that displaced Spider-Man: Brand New Day from the top spot.
