In 1988, Michael Keaton managed to steal hearts and souls by making an unforgettable original antihero come to life in Tim Burton's Beetlejuice. Then, like the demon bio-exorcist himself, the IP lay dormant for nearly four decades before the filmmaker returned for a sequel, along with Keaton, Winona Ryder, and Catherine O'Hara to reprise their roles in the aptly-titled Beetlejuice Beetlejuice. So what brought them back? And what can fans expect from a saucy Beetlejuice in 2024? When tragedy befalls them, the Deetz family returns to Winter River, Connecticut, back to the very house where Lydia (Ryder) first met Beetlejuice. When her teenage daughter, Astrid, played by Jenna Ortega, discovers the mysterious model town in the attic, the portal to the Afterlife is once again opened, unleashing the chaos of the dead and, once again, the mischievous Beetlejuice. In this interview with Collider's Perri Nemiroff, Keaton discusses why he and Tim Burton felt it was time to revisit these characters all these years later. He talks about his initial apprehension about taking on Beetlejuice once more, the gigantic big swings they took on the original film, and why they tiptoed right up to that line with the sequel. #beetlejuice #beetlejuicebeetlejuice #michaelkeaton #interview #timburton For interviews, movie reviews, and more visit FOLLOW US ON SOCIAL
