"It was back in 2011 when Warner Bros. was interested in developing a sequel to Tim Burton's 1988 comedy, Beetlejuice. Soon thereafter, it was confirmed that leading man Michael Keaton was being sought to reprise his role. Today, TheWrap has confirmed Schmoes Know's scoop from earlier this week that Burton has received an offer to direct."

Please no. The first was just okay.

This must happen

Once I considered Batman 3 and Beetlejuice 2 as my most wanted sequels from Burton

Beetlejuice is wonderful and a major nostalgic favorite of mine, so I will root for this project even as I suspect it may be best to leave well enough alone.

Keaton is still amazing, and he's still attached, so I hope he'll make it better. I hope it's not the vacation movie though I've talked about for years

I'd rather Burton do this than Alice in Wonderland 2.


Burton is not the one in talks for Alice 2. Apparently James Bobin is in talks to do it.

I would love an R rated Beetlejuice film.

It's a go!

Quote:
Burton tells Showbizspy the following:

The film is a go and has been approved by the Warner Bros. team, we have talked with the cast members we wanted for the film and they are all on board, this includes both Winona and Michael. We have the script in hand everything is in place all we need to do now is get ready to start filming.

I have no idea how I feel about this one.

I wasn't particularly a fan of the first, but it is interesting to watch the continuing renaissance of Michael Keaton.

I'll see it. Hopefully it captures the mood of the first, which out of all of Burton's films is one of his best.

This has been debunked yet again

Jenny Ortega is in talks to join a sequel! She's in negotiations to play Lydia's daughter. :whaa:

Keaton, Ryder and Ohara are returning with Tim Burton directing. Production set to start in May or June this year.

With Ortega involved this is finally going to get a fastrack, especially after Scream opens. She's well on her way now.

This sounds like it could now be MASSIVE. Lots of generation overlap and love for the original and pulling in Ortega + Ryder seems like its going to be a perfect combo.

Aubrey as her best friend?! :thumbsup:

THR had a tidbit that Ortega used to have “consistent dreams” about Beetlejuice when she was younger so seems like she really loves the original as well.

Definitely seeing $150M+ potential here and possibly $200M+. The Burton + Ortega team brought Wednesday to breakout global success and this is their movie follow up to that.
