EXCLUSIVE: Tim Burton Talks Beetlejuice 2 Pre-Production!

Director Tim Burton has been making the press rounds lately for his new stop motion 3D comedy Frankenweenie, arriving in theaters October 5. Our own Ryan J. Downey recently got to sit down with the filmmaker and scored an update on Beetlejuice 2 as well! We reported in February that Beetlejuice star Michael Keaton is in talks to reprise his role as the ghost with the most, with Seth Grahame-Smith and David Katzenberg writing the script. We also reported in January that Tim Burton may possibly direct, but it's too early to tell if that will happen yet. Take a look at what the filmmaker had to say about this highly-anticipated sequel in our exclusive video interview.

    @comicbookfan Keaton said he would do it, and I am sure he will be fine man! That's what the make up is for!

    @comicbookfan I've seen the Beetlejuice movie many times before. Every time i've seen it i could see that it was hard to tell how old he was, with all that white make-up on his face in the Beetlejuice movie and even on Blu-ray.

    Keaton is too old. That's like saying he's coming back as Batman.

    Beetlejuice sequel: not totally necessary, not totally unnecessary. But it's Keaton or no movie.

    Beetlejuice is a classic and is already boring to see it on tv every Halloween, a sequel is not necessary. Hollywood is running out of steam with unnecessary sequels and remakes. what a shame :I
