Chaos Reigns Supreme in First Trailer for “Beetlejuice” Sequel Starring Jenna Ortega and Winona Ryder
The wait is finally over, as Warner Bros. has unveiled the highly anticipated first trailer for the long-awaited “Beetlejuice” sequel, set to hit theaters in 2024.
Appropriately titled “Beetlejuice Beetlejuice,” the trailer promises a delightfully macabre and mischievous return to the iconic world of the original 1988 cult classic, with some fresh new faces joining the iconic ghostly cast.
The trailer opens with a familiar voice, as Winona Ryder reprises her role as Lydia Deetz, the goth-inspired teenager who found herself entangled in the hijinks of the titular “bio-exorcist” in the first film. Ryder’s haunting rendition of the classic “Beetlejuice” theme immediately sets the tone, hinting at the supernatural chaos that is about to unfold.
Fans of the original will be thrilled to see that the signature visual style of the franchise has been meticulously preserved, with the trademark Burton-esque blend of the whimsical and the ghoulish on full display. The trailer showcases the same delightfully twisted aesthetic, complete with vibrant colors, surreal set designs, and a healthy dose of ghoulish humor.
But the true standout of the trailer is the introduction of Jenna Ortega as the new lead, a role that is sure to delight fans of the actress’ recent turn as Wednesday Addams in the Netflix series. Ortega’s character, a young woman seemingly unconnected to the events of the first film, is drawn into Beetlejuice’s antics, setting the stage for a new generation to experience the delightful mayhem of the character.
The trailer teases a narrative that will blend the beloved elements of the original with fresh new twists and turns, as Ortega’s character navigates the supernatural world of Beetlejuice and the Deetz family. Glimpses of the film’s supporting cast, including a returning Catherine O’Hara as Delia Deetz, suggest that the sequel will maintain the same ensemble dynamic that made the first film such a beloved classic.
One of the most exciting moments in the trailer is the reveal of the new Beetlejuice, played by an as-yet-unannounced actor. While the character’s iconic look and mannerisms appear to have been faithfully preserved, the trailer teases a new interpretation that is sure to both honor the original and put a fresh spin on the character.
The trailer’s crescendo of chaos, featuring Beetlejuice unleashing his manic powers and Lydia and the new protagonist desperately trying to keep up, is a tantalizing glimpse of the madcap adventure that awaits audiences. With its blend of nostalgia and innovation, “Beetlejuice Beetlejuice” promises to be a delightfully bonkers ride that will appeal to both longtime fans and newcomers alike.
As the trailer comes to a close, the ominous warning “He’s back… whether you like it or not” echoes, leaving viewers with a tantalizing taste of the supernatural hijinks that are in store. With its stellar cast, stunning visuals, and the return of one of the most iconic characters in cinematic history, “Beetlejuice Beetlejuice” is poised to be one of the must-see events of 2024.
