Beetlejuice 2 is Empire Magazine’s cover story, and the photo gallery for the covers looks stunning!
Beetlejuice Beetlejuice is gracing the cover of Empire Magazine’s latest issue, and the cast is looking frightfully good!
Michael Keaton takes center stage on the main cover, with Beetlejuice 2 stars Winona Ryder (Lydia Deetz) Catherine O’Hara (Delia Deetz), and franchise newcomer Jenna Ortega (Astrid Deetz) right alongside him. A second piece of cover art attempts to capture the spirit of Tim Burton’s Beetlejuice with a trippy painting of Keaton as Beetlejuice, at the center of a purple-and-green vortex. It already screams “collector’s item.”
Another feature on Empire comes with a new image of Keaton’s Beetlejuice, who is hanging out with old franchise favorite the shrunken head man, ‘Harry the Hunter.’ Harry’s looking far more professional these days, having traded in his hunter’s khakis for a nice yellow suit.
The nostalgia bait seems worthwhile in this case: Michael Keaton is openly confident that Tim Burton has done the (near-impossible), by recapturing the magic of the original:
“I love it [the film]” Keaton said. “I absolutely love this thing. And I don’t [usually] talk like that. I unabashedly love this. It was not easy to pull off, and I think we did it in spades.”
What Is Beetlejuice 2 About?
Here’s the story of Beetlejuice Beetlejuice – as per the latest synopsis from Warner Bros. Pictures:

Still haunted by Beetlejuice, Lydia’s life is turned upside down when her rebellious teenage daughter, Astrid, discovers the mysterious model of the town in the attic and the portal to the Afterlife is accidentally opened.
