Omri Katz was 17 years old in 1993 when he played Max Dennison, the boy who gets swept into Halloween trouble with his little sister, Dani, and the evil Sanderson sisters. Katz is now 46 and will not be returning to "Hocus Pocus 2" as Max, but he has shown his support for the movie and even kept fans guessing about his involvement. In an interview with the Hocus Pocus Collector on Instagram during '90s Con in March 2022, Katz said, "People [are] obviously really disappointed that we're not involved. . . . But, I could be lying. We're all in it! No, maybe we're not. Maybe we are!"
