Sandra Bullock, Nicole Kidman Talk Parenting Teens Ahead of PRACTICAL MAGIC 2
The actresses also discussed adoption and shared a lighthearted story from Hoda Kotb's life.
Sandra Bullock and Nicole Kidman sat down with TODAY's Hoda Kotb to discuss their upcoming reunion in "Practical Magic 2," nearly 28 years after the original film became a box office hit. The conversation ranged from the long-awaited sequel to more personal territory, including what it is like raising teenagers.
The two actresses reflected on their personal connection and the challenges of parenting during the teen years, a topic they have touched on before in a separate TODAY appearance with Kotb focused on caregiving and redefining family. That earlier conversation found both women describing their hardest periods as moments that revealed their truest strength, a theme that carried into this latest sit-down.
Kotb also shared how Bullock's own path inspired her decision to pursue adoption, adding an emotional layer to the exchange between the three women. The moment underscored a recurring thread in their conversations with Kotb, one that moves easily between industry talk and candid reflections on family life.
The segment closed on a lighter note, with Bullock, Kidman and Kotb laughing over what the host described as her own midair meet-cute. The full range of topics, from motherhood to the mechanics of returning to a beloved franchise decades later, reflects the easy rapport the three have built. Kidman and Bullock previously spoke with Kotb about caregiving and redefining family ahead of their Practical Magic reunion.
