Beetlejuice 2 Sequel Reportedly in the Works with Original Cast. At a masterclass on Friday, Burton had suggested that he had no plans to get involved in a reboot of his 1988 cult classic Beetlejuice. Plan B confirmed to Deadline in February that it was developing Beetlejuice 2.
Burton backtracked on this on Saturday after being quizzed for clarification on whether he would be involved or not, saying “nothing is out of the question.”
Asked about Beetlejuice 2 in an October interview, Burton told Deadline that “nothing is out of the question.”
“I only know if I’m making a film when I’m actually on the set shooting,” Burton teased of the sequel to his 1988 cult classic that also starred Alec Baldwin and Geena Davis. “I try to go back to the root of everything. It springs from a seed and then it grows, rather than out of these statements. I am working on ideas and things but it’s all very early days. We’ll set how it goes. How’s that for a none answer?”
A sequel has been in various stages of development since 1990. In 2013, Ryder told The Daily Beast the long-rumored sequel — set decades after the original in real time — “sounds like it might be happening.”
“It’s not a remake. It’s 27 years later,” Ryder said at the time. “And I have to say, I love Lydia [Deetz] so much. She was such a huge part of me. I would be really interested in what she is doing 27 years later.”
Ryder added she would not return for Beetlejuice 2 without Burton and Keaton, whose pre-Batman collaboration grossed nearly $75 million against a budget of $15 million. “I would never go near [a sequel] if it was not Tim and Michael,” she said. “Because those guys, I love.”
