The status of
Tim Burton’s “Beetlejuice” sequel has been slowly progressing.
But recently, film
screenwriter Seth Grahame-Smith broke the news to Entertainment Weekly that he
has completed the drafts of “Beetlejuice 2” script. Smith will be co-producing
the movie sequel along with director Tim Burton.

Smith, who also wrote the script of “Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter” and “Dark Shadows”, also told The Hollywood Reporter that plot for the “Beetlejuice” sequel is in present (or modern) day, although he can’t say much about the film yet.
Smith also
previously turned down the idea of rebooting the film, but suggested to make a
movie sequel and bring Michael Keaton back in the film.
The 63-year-old
actor, Keaton, played the titular role in this 1988 film with Alec Baldwin as
Adam Maitland and Winona Ryder as Lynda Deetz.
Last December,
Burton announced in an interview with MTV that he will be directing
“Beetlejuice 2” and that Ryder will be returning.
“Michael, and
her … and that character, I just miss it; there’s some freedom about that
character that I love,” Burton said.
The 1988
horror-comedy film “Beetlejuice” revolves around the deceased young couple Adam
and Barbara Maitland (Baldwin and Geena Davis) who become ghosts. They haunt
their former house and the devious ghost Betelguese (but pronounced as
Beetlejuice) who tries to scare away the new dwellers, the Deetz family.
The film became
the 10th-highest grossing film of 1988; with its $15-million budget, it earned
$73.7 million ($8 million in opening weekend in the United States).
