Warner Bros. has unveiled a big new trailer for Tim Burton‘s long-awaited sequel, Beetlejuice Beetlejuice. Take a look above.
The follow-up to the 1988 hit finds Michael Keaton back in his iconic role and joined by returning cast members Winona Ryder (Stranger Things, Little Women) as Lydia Deetz and Catherine O’Hara (Schitt’s Creek, Corpse Bride) as Delia Deetz. The new cast members include Jenna Ortega (Wednesday, Scream VI) as Lydia’s daughter, Astrid, Justin Theroux (Star Wars: Episode VIII – The Last Jedi, The Leftovers), Monica Bellucci (Spectre, The Matrix films), Arthur Conti (House of the Dragon), making his feature film debut, and Willem Dafoe (Poor Things, At Eternity’s Gate).
The plot for Beetlejuice Beetlejuice finds three generations of the Deetz family brought back to Winter River following tragedy. Lydia’s life, still haunted by Beetlejuice, is thrown into chaos when her rebellious teenage daughter, Astrid, discovers the mysterious town model in the attic, accidentally opening a portal to the Afterlife. With turmoil brewing in both realms, it’s only a matter of time before someone utters Beetlejuice’s name three times, summoning the mischievous demon to unleash his brand of chaos.
