Om filmen
Beetlejuice Beetlejuice är en amerikansk skräck- och komedifilm som hade premiär den 6 september 2024. Filmen är regisserad av Tim Burton efter ett manus skrivet av Alfred Gough, Seth Grahame-Smith och David Katzenberg.
Den är en uppföljare till filmen Beetlejuice från 1988, också regisserad av Burton. Vissa skådespelare återkommer i samma roller som i originalfilmen, inklusive Michael Keaton som repriserar rollen som spöket Betelgeuse (uttalas som Beetlejuice).
Handling – innehåller spoilers
Filmen följer den nu vuxna Lydia (Winona Ryder) från originalfilmen, som fortfarande kan se spöken, och hennes tonårsdotter Astrid (Jenna Ortega). När Lydias far dör återvänder hon tillsammans med styvmodern Delia (Catherine O'Hara) till Winter River där Lydia i sin ungdom mötte spöket Betelgeuse. Lydia försöker varna familjen för honom, men när Astrid luras in i spökdimensionen "the Afterlife" av ett annat spöke, Jeremy (Arthur Conti(en)), ser Lydia ingen annan utväg än att kalla tillbaka Betelgeuse för att få hjälp att återfinna henne.

Skådespelare enligt källan
Källans rollista eller listade huvudroller, inte garanterat alla medverkande.
Michael Keaton
Betelgeuse, a ghastly "bio-exorcist" who desires to marry someone from the living world. Both Keaton and director Tim Burton opted to keep the character as malicious and politically incorrect as he was in the original film due to their love for that character trait.
Mark Heenehan
Charles Deetz (physical performance)
Charlie Hopkinson
Charles Deetz (voice)
Winona Ryder
Lydia Deetz, the former gothic teenager who was almost forced to marry Betelgeuse, now mother of Astrid Deetz and hostess of a talk show called Ghost House. Ryder initially imagined her character would live as a spinster in the Maitland residence's attic, but appreciated the development of her character, particularly around her relationship with daughter Astrid.
Catherine O'Hara
Delia Deetz, Lydia's stepmother, Astrid's step-grandmother and Charles Deetz's widow, now the hostess of a real art show located in a SoHo gallery.
Jenna Ortega
Astrid Deetz, Lydia's teenage daughter and Delia's step-granddaughter.
Justin Theroux
Rory, a television producer and Lydia's ex-fiancé. He was inspired by the late Glenn Shadix's Otho Fenlock character from the original film. The writers Alfred Gough and Miles Millar devised him as a character who everyone wanted to see getting his comeuppance, like Otho, and enjoying the idea of Lydia being in a weird codependent relationship which everyone sees that way, herself included. Gough and Millar wanted the audience to understand why Rory is with Lydia and that he was a "schmuck", but they felt that they needed to find Rory's humanity without him being a mere punchline. Once Theroux was cast and connected with the writers over Zoom, he provided Gough and Millar with ideas they incorporated.
Willem Dafoe
Wolf Jackson, a Netherworld detective who was a B movie action star in life before he was inadvertently killed by a live grenade.
Monica Bellucci
Delores LaFerve, Betelgeuse's ex-wife, who, in life, was a mysterious and soul-collecting occultist who poisoned Betelgeuse several centuries earlier during the Black Death before he fatally mutilated her with an axe in retaliation.
Arthur Conti
Jeremy Frazier, the ghost of a troubled teenager who murdered his parents and becomes Astrid's brief love interest.
Burn Gorman
Father Damien, a comically eloquent Irish priest in Winter River.
Santiago Cabrera
Richard, Astrid's late father and Lydia's ex-husband who was eaten alive by piranhas in the Amazon and is now employed at the Netherworld's civil service.
Nick Kellington
Bob, the anxious leader of Betelgeuse's shrunken-headed employees at the Netherworld's call centre whose soul is later drained by Delores.
Amy Nuttall
Jane Butterfield Jr., a local real estate agent and the daughter of the original film's Jane Butterfield Sr. character. She was previously portrayed by Rachel Mittelman in said film as a child.
Paul Warren
Tom, a bald and one-eyed member of Betelgeuse's shrunken-headed employees.
patriarch
Mark Heenehan (physical) and Charlie Hopkinson (voice) as Charles Deetz, the Deetzes' late who recently died in a shark attack following an airplane crash in the Pacific Ocean that occurred during his return from a birdwatching trip and, as a result of this, is left without most of the upper half of his body in death. The character is depicted with the likeness of his original portrayer, Jeffrey Jones, through various means, including reused photographs and a stop motion sequence that describes the character's death. These circumstances were inspired by a nightmare of Burton's that detailed his own death.
Danny DeVito
a janitor in the Netherworld whose soul is drained by Delores during her introduction.
