Beetlejuice! Beetlejuice! Beetlejuice!
Say the name three times and Beetlejuice will appear!
Warner Bros has now apparently said “Beetlejuice 2” three times as it’s learned Mike Vukadinovich is rewriting a Beetlejuice 2 script, which is eyed at repairing director Tim Burton with Michael Keaton.
Deadline notes no deals are anywhere near completion with Tim Burton or Michael Keaton, but they state they are hearing the two are excited about returning for the sequel.
Beetlejuice 2 has been in the works for some time as back in 2015 saw both Tim Burton and Winona Ryder confirm a return to Beetlejuice 2; however the sequel never got off the ground.
Tim Burton and Michael Keaton are actually working together on Disney’s Dumbo movie, so hopefully they return for Beetlejuice 2 as well.
Beetlejuice debuted back in 1988 also starring Alec Baldwin and Geena Davis as ghosts who unleashed Beetlejuice in order to get rid of a family now living in their house.
