Four decades later, Tim Burton returns to the wickedly wonderful world of Beetlejuice, bringing Michael Keaton, Winona Ryder, and Catherine O'Hara back into the fold. Now, however, Lydia Deetz (Ryder) is bringing her own family to her childhood home, introducing her daughter Astrid and boyfriend Rory, played by Jenna Ortega and Justin Theroux, to Winter River and, inevitably, to the bio-exorcist of her past in Beetlejuice Beetlejuice. Ortega's role as Astrid steps into the strange and unusual shoes of her mother, turning the rebellious tables on Lydia. But who is Rory, a character we've only caught glimpses of in trailers? In an interview with Collider's Perri Nemiroff, Theroux discusses joining this timeless character's orbit and shares details he and Burton collaborated on for this new addition. Check out the full conversation in the video above or in the transcript below to find out why Rory is “in his own soap opera“ and how he models himself after Lydia. Theroux also discusses working opposite Ryder and why his first on-set reaction to her was, “Holy sh*t,“ what it was like working with practical effects, and which Beetlejuice Beetlejuice character needs a spin-off. #beetlejuice #beetlejuicebeetlejuice #justintheroux #interview #timburton For interviews, movie reviews, and more visit FOLLOW US ON SOCIAL
