Tale
After a family tragedy, three generations of Dietz return home to Winter River
Still haunted by Beetlejuice, Lydia’s life is turned upside down when her teenage daughter Astrid accidentally opens a portal to the afterlife. Jenna Ortega, Michael Keaton, Winona Ryder, Catherine O’Hara, Justin Theroux and Monica Bellucci share why filming Tim Burton’s Beetlejuice was an experience they’ll never forget. Tim Burton has said that this movie will only be made if Michael Keaton returns to reprise his role.
Later, you bastard
Keaton said in March 2014 that this was the only sequel he wanted to make. The film refers to the “French physicist” Marie Sklodowska-Curie; she is actually one of the most famous Polish women scientists in history, often considered second only to Copernicus. Beetlejuice: I think Dostoyevsky said…

Beetlejuice, specifically Beetlejuice and maybe Bob, were the only decent things in this sequel.
🤔 The sequel simply did not capture the magic of the original
The original Beetlejuice is legendary and I’m going to pretend this one doesn’t exist because, seriously, come on. It lacked the charm, wit and unique style that made the first film a classic. It felt more like a cash grab than an actual attempt to continue the story.
Fans of the original will likely be disappointed
Shame because it had a lot of potential. Hopefully, future projects will do more justice to the Beetlejuice legacy.
