Beetlejuice: The Surprising Michael Keaton Detail You Likely Never Realized

Micheal Keaton’s scenes only took two weeks to film, an extraordinary feat considering the role required considerable makeup and at least some wire work. In all likelihood, the process was sped along by his sheer talent. “He’s a master improviser,” Tim Burton told Esquire in 2014. “That time with Michael … was the most profoundly creative time in my career, every day was exciting. I miss it.”

Fortunately for Burton, the two are working together again on the long-gestating “Beetlejuice 2,” the trailer for which sets the ‘Juice loose. Although Alec Baldwin and Geena Davis won’t be in “Beetlejuice 2,” the sequel will also see the return of Catherine O’Hara as Delia and Winona Ryder as a now grown-up Lydia, as well as the addition of Jenna Ortega as Lydia’s daughter, Astrid.

“Beetlejuice Beetlejuice” hits theaters on September 6.
