Beetlejuice [DVD] [1988]

Product Information

Burton described the character of Betelgeuse to Keaton as “having lived in every time period but no time period.” There are many changes between Beetlejuice in the musical and Betelgeuse in the movie. In many ways, he is much darker and more into murder, as well as more manipulative of Lydia - yet, he is redeemed in the end. In Burton's darkly funny movie, the Maitlands' death is caused by swerving their car to avoid a dog on a covered bridge and drowning, while in the musical they fall through the floorboards of the house.

If and when ‘Beetlejuice 2’ arrives, Michael Keaton will surely reprise his role as Betelgeuse. The 1990 ‘Beetlejuice Goes Hawaiian’ script would have also seen the return of Winona Ryder as Lydia Deetz, Jeffrey Jones as Charles Deetz and Catherine O’Hara as Delia Deetz. If the script is revived, we might see them again in ‘Beetlejuice 2’. However, Alec Baldwin and Geena Davis are unlikely to return in the sequel, as their characters Adam and Barbara Maitland both pretty much concluded their story arcs in the first film.
