The new trailer for Beetlejuice Beetlejuice is filled with spoilers as it reveals the new misadventures in the afterlife for Lydia Deetz (Winona Ryder) and her daughter Astrid (Jenna Ortega).
Just like her mom, Astrid is a bit of an outcast. She has to deal with mean girls at her prep school. As they all laugh at seeing Astrid’s reaction to a prank involving Halloween decorations, she shoots back, “when you’re all driving carpool and banging your pilates instructors to fill the empty voids in your life, we’ll see who gets the last laugh.”
In the meantime, Lydia has to summon Beetlejuice to protect Astrid after the teen dared to summon the trickster. Beetlejuice, surprise surprise, is actually cooperating with her to battle an evil entity, Delores (Monica Bellucci) who appears to have a past with Beetlejuice.
Beetlejuice has plans to wed Astrid, who dons a gothic silver wedding dress. Beetlejuice is shown telling smartphone-carrying attendees, “Thank you all for coming to this special occasion, but right now we’d like to have a little privacy.”
Tim Burton directs the sequel with a script penned by Wednesday showrunners Alfred Gough and Miles Millar; Seth Grahame-Smith is also credited for his contributions to the film’s story. The producers include Burton, Dede Gardner, Tommy Harper, Jeremy Kleiner and Marc Toberoff.
The big date? September 6th.
