In 1988, when he was only a young filmmaker in his thirties, Tim Burton made his second feature film Beetlejuice, three years after Pee-wee’s Big Adventure.
Among the actors, the couple Alec Baldwin – Geena Davis, but also Winona Ryder, who two years later will team up with Tim Burton for the hands of Edward Scissorhands, Catherine O’Hara, Kevin’s future mother Mom I Missed the Plane, or even Geoffrey Jones. A few years earlier, he appears as a tyrannical school principal who relentlessly pursues young Ferris Bueller.
Let’s not forget, of course, “THE” Beetlejuice himself, played by a very inspired Michael Keaton, who contributed greatly to the film’s success, a success that allowed its director to offer a Batman comic book adaptation to the big screen the following year. offered his actor (who had to change his name because of Michael Douglas!) one of the biggest roles of his career.
Only three of this merry band remain for the Beetlejuice Beetlejuice sequel, which hits theaters this Wednesday, Michael Keaton, Winona Ryder, and Catherine O’Hara.
And among the new faces we find a young Jenna Ortega, who became famous for her role on Wednesday in the series about the Addams family … Tim Burton, Monica Bellucci, in a relationship since 2023 … Tim Burton, also Danny DeVito. The unforgettable Penguin in Batman: The Challenge… Tim Burton, or even Willem Dafoe, of whom we strangely found no artistic connection to Tim Burton.
We want Beetlejuice Beetlejuice to be as successful as the previous cult film from the 80s. Awaiting more data, take a look at his directorial filmography, identifying his twelve films!
