Hocus Pocus Star Omri Katz Unrecognizable Decades After Film

Omri Katz, who rose to fame as Max Dennison in the 1993 Disney Halloween classic Hocus Pocus, looks strikingly different more than 30 years after the film's release, now sporting shorter hair and more facial hair at age 48. Katz's acting career ended in 2002, and he currently runs a cannabis company and participates in fan conventions, though he did not return for the 2022 sequel Hocus Pocus 2. Meanwhile, Grey’s Anatomy experienced a notable shift in tone after the departure of Sandra Oh’s character Cristina Yang, a figure who challenged traditional portrayals of women by openly prioritizing her career over motherhood. Additionally, David Cross, known for his role in Arrested Development, appears in a new comedy series aimed at bridging political divides on climate change, showcasing his comedic style with a fuller beard and collaborating with climate scientist Michael Oppenheimer. Lastly, Loretta Devine, a Grey’s Anatomy alumna, was nearly unrecognizable at a screening for her new film Finding Faith, which tells a story of personal tragedy and redemption.
