The ghost with the most is back! Beetlejuice, the iconic character portrayed by Michael Keaton, returns to the screen in Tim Burton’s long-awaited sequel, “Beetlejuice Beetlejuice”. The film, set to release on September 6, promises more afterlife mayhem as Beetlejuice is once again summoned by the Deetz family.
In the sequel, Lydia’s daughter Astrid, played by Jenna Ortega, finds herself entangled in dangerous purgatorial shenanigans. The trailer reveals Astrid discovering a flyer in the Maitland home attic that entices her to “exor-cise” her right to RIP, hinting at the chaotic adventures to come.
The film also sees the return of Winona Ryder as Lydia and Catherine O’Hara as Delia Deetz. New cast members include Justin Theroux and Monica Bellucci, with Willem Dafoe appearing as a freaky case worker. The trailer teases a fun encounter with Beetlejuice in the land of the dead, including the infamous waiting room.
The sequel is not just about bringing back the beloved characters and their ghoulish chaos. It also explores the mother and daughter dynamic between Lydia and Astrid as they face the hauntings from the past. The film promises to be a frightfully funny feast of stop-motion and a return to the Burton wackiness that fans have missed.
