Bellucci’s role has been teased from the very first cast and story information that was released for Beetlejuice 2 – and now we get to see her in all her terrifying glory!
We can only guess the backstory of this clearly toxic couple – or why Mrs. Beetlegeuse is so infuriated with her husband. Running away to realms unknown – as well as attempting to marry teenage girls – seems like it could all be part of the problem.
In any case: Monica Bellucci is (as usual) a vision onscreen, and the Italian model/actress makes even Tim Burton’s twisted version of the afterlife look good. The “Lady Frankenstein” is definitely going to be replaced by the “Mrs. Beetlejuice” come Halloween this year.
