Two months in the past, Warner Bros. launched the teaser trailer for “Beetlejuice Beetlejuice,” the sequel to director Tim Burton’s traditional Eighties comedy film, which clocks in at simply 1:15. Even in such a brief clip, we see that the film is about in the identical Connecticut city because the 1988 movie, and we get hints that one thing is unsuitable with the mannequin of the city within the attic, the place Beetlejuice lives. We additionally get a glimpse of present-day Lydia Dietz… and slightly woman who appears similar to her driving a motorcycle throughout an all-too-familiar lined bridge.
In case you missed it, right here it’s:

One other factor to notice earlier than watching the trailer: Keaton and a number of the authentic forged members are concerned, together with co-stars Catherine O’Hara and Winona Ryder. They’re going to be part of Justin Theroux, Monica Bellucci and film newcomer Arthur Conti within the new movie alongside the good Willem Dafoe, who you will have missed within the taboo and hilarious “The Lighthouse” (2019).
Jenna Ortega, who appeared on the Addams Household-related streaming sequence, “Wednesday,” will play Lydia’s daughter Astrid.
One of the crucial vital folks to return, although, is director Tim Burton, who together with the wonderful returning forged members, provides me excessive hopes that this can be price watching. They add a degree of credibility to the discharge that nothing else can.
2:17 The trailer opens with an introduction by Winona Ryder, dressed as her character Lydia Dietz, who says ominously: “Here is a preview. Be warned — it is intense!”
The clip provides context to the teaser, revealing that it options scenes of the funeral of Lydia’s father (and naturally, Astrid’s grandfather). We be taught that the woman is simply as rebellious as her mom, and there is a trace that that is partly why Beetlejuice is “free” in the actual world once more. We’re additionally handled to sightings of a spectral prepare, a haunted dance membership, and a number of Dietz relations visiting the Dying Counselor ready room/limbo we all know so properly from the unique film. I can not wait to see it now.
