"Hocus Pocus 2" Needs More Hannah Waddingham

If you're on the fence about watching "Hocus Pocus 2," Hannah Waddingham's cameo is more than enough reason to slam that "play" button. The British Emmy winner stars in the Disney sequel as Mother Witch, a silver-haired sorceress who gives the Sanderson sisters their spellbook. Despite her pivotal role in the trio's villain origin story - I mean, who would they be without Bookie? - Waddingham's Mother Witch has criminally limited screen time that clocks in at less than five minutes.
Performance-length concerns aside, let's unpack and appreciate Waddingham's masterpiece of a scene, shall we? When a young Winifred, Sarah, and Mary Sanderson flee Salem, Ma, to the Forbidden Woods, they encounter a red-and-black-feathered bird that swoops down from a tree branch and transforms into Mother Witch. With glowing eyes, curly hair, and silver face gems, she's a mesmerizing sight to behold in the otherwise drab forest.
