Sandy and Nicole still cast a spell 🧙‍♀️

Before Harry, Sandy and Nicole had the magic mojo.

The 1998 romantic fantasy "Practical Magic" became a cult favorite in the past three decades, with Sandra Bullock and Nicole Kidman as the witchy Owens sisters. They're bringing nostalgia back to movie theaters with "Practical Magic 2," while Andrew Garfield starts a revolution in the historical drama "The Uprising," based on a 14th-century English rebellion. If you're looking for something to stream, Gen Xers will want to revisit the Reagan era with Netflix's Mr. T documentary – if you grew up watching "The A-Team" or remember the first WrestleMania, that's a must.

Now on to the good stuff:

See Sandra Bullock, Nicole Kidman conjure A-list chemistry in 'Practical Magic 2'

While "Practical Magic" might not be the thing you immediately think of when talking about Sandra Bullock

or Nicole Kidman, the '90s film has built up a fandom. Enough of one that people will definitely love pieces of the sequel "Practical Magic 2" (in theaters now). Sally (Bullock) and Gillian Owens (Nicole Kidman) have to deal with their family love curse yet again in a movie that gets a little drunk on its own midnight margaritas, but Joey King and Maisie Williams playing Sally's kids give the film a needed spark. (Peep my ★★½ review.)

I chatted with Bullock and Kidman about the new sequel, the third movie no one wants to see, parenting and the sometimes fiery dynamic between their characters. “I don't think we see that enough in cinema with women. You're supposed to fight," Bullock says. Meanwhile my LA colleague Allison Moses sat down with King and Williams to get some witchy stories from the "Practical" newcomers.

Go back in time with a revolutionary Andrew Garfield for 'The Uprising'

Andrew Garfield has an intriguing rest of the year coming up. He stars as a farmer who sparks a revolution in the historical drama "The Uprising" (in theaters now) and come Christmas, he plays controversial OpenAI CEO Sam Altman in the high-tech biopic "Artificial." Very different roles, indeed, but when I talked with Garfield, he sees them as “the two opposite forces in our current world, in a way.”

But no matter if he's playing an actual tech billionaire or a fictional figure in the 1381 Peasants' Revolt, "every character has to feel real and has to feel like you have a deep responsibility to this human being, to try and make them as alive and nuanced and complicated as any other person,” he says.

Pity the fool who doesn't watch Netflix's Mr. T documentary

Fun Brian fact: I was more than a little obsessed with Mr. T back in the day. I was definitely not the only kid, naturally, but I watched "The A-Team" religiously, ate the Mr. T cereal (sometimes) and of course had the Mr. T action figure. (Still got a vintage one, too!) So my fellow youths from Generation X are the core audience for "Untold Mr. T: I Pity the Fool" (streaming now on Netflix). The documentary covers his pop-culture introduction in "Rocky III" as well as his bout with cancer. My colleague Erin Jensen talked with T about his famous catchphrase but also his deep faith. "If people just know that Mr. T is tough and stuff like that, you don't know nothing about me," he says. "I'm more than that.”

And if you're in the mood for more to stream after that, there's a slew of new movies on your favorite services, including the DC cosmic adventure "Supergirl" and Tyler Perry's dramedy "Why Did I Get Married Again?"
