Making a BEETLEJUICE SEQUEL—it’s (probably) happening!

Is Warner Bros. finally making Beetlejuice 2? Wednesday star Jenna Ortega is reported as possibly part of the Beetlejuice sequel cast. After floating in development for years, Warner Bros. mentioned as part of their CinemaCon 2023 panel that Beetlejuice 2 is going to happen. The original 1988 movie Beetlejuice —the classic horror-comedy directed by Tim Burton —told the story of a ghostly husband and wife trying to stop their  home from being completely remodeled by its new residents, and calling on the titular bio-exorcist. The movie included stars Michael Keaton as Beetlejuice, plus Winona Ryder , Geena Davis , Alec Baldwin , Catherine O’Hara , and Glenn Shadix , among others. During Warner Bros. presentation at the convention for theater workers, the studio claimed that Beetlejuice 2 is officially in the works. Over the years, there have been several attempts to get a Beetlejuice sequel going. At various points, there were mentions of the possibility of including one or more of the original cast members. And there have been rumors they may have cast Jenna Ortega , who recently played Wednesday Addams—but that isn’t actually confirmed. At this moment, there are no official confirmations of cast members for the sequel. Find the  Beetlejuice  movie on Amazon The original film is one of the most loved horror comedy movies of all time. Beetlejuice has gone on to inspire a cartoon TV show , video games, and a popular stage musical . There is even a cookbook on the way! I also want to mention the fun—and somewhat surprising—crossover that came when the cartoon Beetlejuice guest starred on the 2020 Teen Titans Go! episode “Ghost with the Most.” For this appearance, Beetlejuice was voiced by Alex Brightman , repeating his role from the Broadway musical.
