Double Trouble: Tia Mowry Open To Disney Return In Third 'Twitches' Movie With Twin Sister Tamera

Tia and Tamera Mowry first starred in the Disney Channel Original Movie "Twitches" in 2005. The Halloween flick about long-lost twin sisters who discover each other and their magical powers on their 21st birthdays became a Disney classic, spawning a sequel in which the iconic actresses defeated the "darkness" once again. Now that it's been 20 years since the original, Millennials and early Gen-Z fans are calling for a third film, and Tia and Tamera are ready and willing to show up. But can they get the bosses at Disney on board?

During an interview with Entertainment Tonight, Tia responded to fan demand, saying she and Tamera were ready to sign on the dotted line, but they needed Disney to get on board first. "Come on," she said enthusiastically. "It's Disney. Come on, Disney. You guys have a yes from me; you have a yes from Tamera. So, let's do it, Disney!"

In a previous interview with TV Insider, Tamera also expressed her interest in returning for a third film. "I mean, I would love to. I would love to," she said. "I think there are a lot of things that would have to align. And then, there’s so much pressure when the original was so iconic."

Tia and Tamera worked together on-screen long before their Disney film, as they starred in their breakout sitcom, "Sister, Sister," where they played long-lost twin sisters reunited as teenagers. Just a few years later, in 2000, the girls appeared in "Seventeen Again" as Sydney and Cat, two sisters who have to deal with their grandfather's age-reversing experiment. In the early aughts, the legendary actresses starred in several double-trouble films, including "Twitches" and "Double Wedding," a Lifetime movie in which the pair unknowingly dated the same man. From 2011 to 2013, they filmed an explosive reality series, "Tia & Tamera," which showcased their complex relationship as sisters along with their plan to reinvent themselves in an industry they'd been in for nearly two decades.

While they've had incredible success in front of the camera, Tamera revealed that it took some time for her and Tia to be paid fairly for their work.

"We were 18 or 19 and she had done her research and she realized there were certain people in the entertainment business that were making more money and she knew that, my sister and I, we were putting in the time, putting in the work, but not only that, we had success," she said.

Tamera stated that her mother then stepped in on their behalf. "She believed in us. And by her believing in us, we saw that strength and we believed in ourselves," she said.

"And my sister and I became, at one point, one of the highest-paid actresses on a pre-teen family show and it started with my mom and us knowing our worth and, again, vocalizing what we believe is right," Tamera added.

In 2024, Tia and Tamera's relationship came under scrutiny after both sisters shared unusual statements about the other during interviews and TV appearances.

During Tia's reality series, "My Next Act," she got candid about how challenging life had been since filing for divorce and not being as close to her sister. "Being alone has been the most challenging part of my divorce," she said. "It's times like this when I feel and wish that my sister and I were still close, and I could pick up the phone and call her. But that's just not where we are right now."

Tamera, on the other hand, revealed that she had no idea the "Instant Mom" actress was filming an unscripted series, saying that Tia likely wanted it to be her own thing, and she respected that.

Recently, Tia finally cleared the air on the rumored tension between her and her sister, revealing that things have shifted as they've gotten older. "The world, they’re so used to seeing all of us together, but at the end of the day, we all grow up. We all have our own families," she said.

However, that doesn't mean that they're in a bad place. In fact, the pair have spent the last several months working together again on different opportunities, including HomeGoods' "Deck the Everything Day." Tia also revealed that since making headlines last year, she and Tamera have made a vow to call each other on Sundays to debrief. "... as long as we make time for each other, that's all that matters," she added.
