Will There Be a Beetlejuice 3?
Despite the fact that a movie titled Beetlejuice Beetlejuice Beetlejuice seems like something that absolutely needs to happen, Tim Burton isn't so sure about a final film to complete the trilogy:
"Let's do the math. It took 35 years to do this one," Burton, 66, answered when asked about a Beetlejuice Beetlejuice sequel during a Venice press conference, according to Deadline. "For another, I'd be over 100 [years old]. It could be possible thanks to medical science. But I don't think so."
Of course, with the numbers that Beetlejuice 2 is putting up, it seems likely that a sequel could be fast tracked to, say, a year or two as opposed to 1/3 of a century. We'll have to wait and see.
The synopsis for Beetlejuice Beetlejuice reads: "Beetlejuice is back! After an unexpected family tragedy, three generations of the Deetz family return home to Winter River. Still haunted by Beetlejuice, Lydia's life is turned upside down when her rebellious teenage daughter, Astrid, discovers the mysterious model of the town in the attic, and the portal to the Afterlife is accidentally opened. With trouble brewing in both realms, it's only a matter of time until someone says Beetlejuice's name three times and the mischievous demon returns to unleash his very own brand of mayhem."
