Beetlejuice 2 is a name we’ve been hearing in the press more than three times as of late, so it has to be happening. Michael Keaton’s triumphant return to the 1988 Tim Burton role he made famous is currently underway, and its production boasts quite a cast of Hollywood notables. The most recent of which happens to be Willem Dafoe, who is finally teaming up with a director he seems made to play for, and in an appropriately spooky role.
Don’t get your hopes up for any new story notes, babe, as the Beetlejuice sequel’s plot is still sequestered in the realm known as secrecy. That being said, the announcement of Dafoe’s participation does come with some added context in a report from THR. Apparently, the character Willem Dafoe will be playing is “a law enforcement officer in the afterlife.”
