Perez calls himself “a huge fan” of the original Disney film, which introduced the campy Sanderson witches — Bette Midler as Winnie, Sarah Jessica Parker as Sarah and Kathy Najimy as Mary — to audiences in 1993. “I’ve probably seen it 30 or 40 times,” he tells us. “I also had the benefit of being friends with Mary E.
