“Beetlejuice! Beetlejuice! Beetlejuice!” There’s some hope on the horizon for seeing the possibility of a Beetlejuice 2 movie! Even actress Geena Davis is interested in returning for it.
Geena Davis played Barbara Maitland in the 1988 original, who, along with her husband Adam (Alec Baldwin) tries to scare away the new owners of their house with the help of bio-exorcist Beetlejuice (Michael Keaton).

In a PEOPLE exclusive, Davis said she “would of course like to revisit” the world of Beetlejuice. “I want to play every character I’ve ever played again,” Davis added.
Confirmed by Deadline, Brad Pitt’s production company Plan B has boarded Beetlejuice 2, which brings a new sense of life to a project that has long been in the works at Warner Bros. Both Michael Keaton and Winona Ryder are expected to reprise their roles as Beetlejuice and Lydia Deetz, respectively. The project could reportedly film as early as 2023.
Even though it hasn’t officially been through the movie studios’ greenlight committee yet, the news is hopeful with Brad Pitt’s production company taking an interest.
Beetlejuice is a classic film from director Tim Burton in which the spirits of a deceased couple are harassed by an unbearable family that has moved into their home, hiring a malicious spirit of the same name to drive them out. Michael Keaton played the title role in the original, with Alec Baldwin, Geena Davis, Catherine O’Hara, Winona Ryder and more rounding out the cast.
