Warner Bros. Pictures recently released the first look poster, depicting two hands holding a long slip of paper with the movie’s release date and the line, “The wait is almost over.” This is a callback to the Netherworld waiting room where souls take a number.

Most recently, Keaton appeared on Jimmy Kimmel to discuss his latest projects, where he revealed what to expect in ‘Beetlejuice 2’.
Keaton said, “The great thing about playing Beetlejuice is that you never make the statement, ‘Well, my character wouldn’t do that.’ He’d do anything, which was so tremendous to play.” Keaton added, “However, in the second one, which I’m telling you is so good, Tim lays this idea on me. Admittedly, I kind of went, ‘Oh, okay. I don’t know; good luck with that.’ So there is a kind of backstory, which is kind of a surprise for everyone.”
Produced by Brad Pitt, Dede Gardner, Jeremy Kleiner, Burton, Tommy Harper, Marc Toberoff, and David Geffen, ‘Beetlejuice Beetlejuice’ is a collaboration between Plan B Entertainment and Tim Burton Productions.
