Tim Burton's Beetlejuice 2 is just around the corner, and it still seems surreal to fans that they finally got a sequel to one of the best classic horror movies of all time. Even Winona Ryder was skeptical at first when she found out there were plans for a sequel.
The iconic actress, who plays Lydia Deetz, believes things fell into place to make this project happen. After all, it's been 36 years since the original installment hit theaters, and there couldn't be a more perfect time to revisit it than today.
Warner Bros. brought back some of the big cast with Winona Ryder and Michael Keaton joining franchise newcomer Jenna Ortega in Tim Burton's Beetlejuice Beetlejuice. A project featuring a collection of Hollywood's most in-demand stars would warrant so much hype and anticipation from fans. It is worth noting that the director decided to make another installment because of a new passion and not about profit.
