'Beetlejuice 2' news and updates: Premier delays

'Beetlejuice 2' will not premier this year but a sometime ahead.

In an interview with IGN, Tim Burton was excited for another 'Beetlejuice' movie as long as Micheal Keaton would still be willing to play the role of 'Beetlejuice'. Tim Burton added, "There's only one Beetlejuice, and that's Michael. There is a script, and I would love to work with him again. I think there is now a better chance than ever... I miss that character. There's something that's cathartic and amazing about it. I think it's closer than ever."

While, Micheal Keaton too expressed his interest in being Beetlejuice again, "I always said that's the one thing I'd like to do again, if I ever did anything again."

Seth Grahame-Smith who is known for his work in 'Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter" and "Pride and Prejudice and Zombies" will pen the screenplay.

Seth Grahame-Smith said, "I think we landed on the right idea, landed on the right approach. It's just now making sure that-for me-I don't want to shit my pants in front of the entire world making a sequel to one of my favorite movies,'' reported the iDigitalTimes,

Since few months there was no news on 'Beetlejuice 2', but recently Seth Grahame-Smith (Writer of Beetlejuice 2) told Entertainment Weekly,

"I've emailed with Michael Keaton. I know he's excited about the idea. I know Tim is excited about the idea. Where it stands now is Tim's got to get ready to make ['Miss Peregrine's Home For Peculiar Children'], and then hopefully we are set, deals are done, and we're waiting in the wings ready to go right after 'Peregrine's' wraps up. The ideal timeline is we're really getting into it toward the end of this year."

Will 'Beetlejuice 2' be a remake of the 1988 version? It is said that it is also not going to be a sequel, but rather a spin-off. According to WhatCulture, the upcoming Beetlejuice 2 is going to be titled, "Beetlejuice Goes Hawaiian".
