The movie took the chance to really get a sense of "Hocus Pocus 2", from this actor. What we learned was there was some anticipation on his end as Jones, talked about getting an understanding of the deeper parts of this zombie, with the ultimate hope of seeing these secrets and moments unfold even further, he really thought that this would come up. What made it so great? Jones loved the idea, of bringing Billy's character to the front for everyone to appreciate, giving audiences the special back story of him and Winifred!
