The upcoming sequel, Beetlejuice Beetlejuice, set 36 years after the original, features Jenna Ortega as Lydia's daughter, Astrid, who unleashes Betelgeuse, played by Michael Keaton. The film, directed by Tim Burton, aims to blend nostalgia with Ortega's rising stardom but risks mirroring her role in the series Wednesday too closely, potentially alienating fans. The trailers reveal Astrid's skepticism of ghosts, her experiences in the afterlife, and her interactions with iconic characters like Lydia and Betelgeuse. With a mix of humor, supernatural elements, and a focus on Astrid's journey, the movie promises chaos, mayhem, and a new twist on the classic Beetlejuice universe.
