Wednesday star Jenna Ortega's 'Beetlejuice 2' release date revealed: Check cast, key details
Beetlejuice 2", the highly anticipated sequel to the 1980s iconic gothic horror, will be released in theatres. Often regarded as one of the most influential films in this genre, the original Beetlejuice, starring Michael Keaton, has maintained its allure as a cult classic with a counter-cultural aesthetic. Its enduring popularity is further heightened by a recent musical adaptation that has graced Broadway intermittently since 2018.
Filming commenced in the UK on May 10, 2023, and encountered a temporary hiatus, just days away from completion, due to the SAG-AFTRA and WGA strikes. The scheduled release date for «Beetlejuice 2» is September 6, 2024, according to reports.
While the full cast is yet to be unveiled, several key members have already been confirmed. Michael Keaton and Winona Ryder are set to reprise their iconic roles as Beetlejuice and Lydia, respectively. Joining them is Jenna Ortega, known for her roles in 'Wednesday' and 'Scream', who will portray Lydia's daughter in this highly anticipated sequel.
Meanwhile, Actor Jenna Ortega has exited «Scream VII», a day after Spyglass Media Group fired co-lead Melissa Barrera from the latest chapter in the horror film franchise over her social media posts referring to the Israel-Hamas conflict. Sources told entertainment website The Hollywood Reporter that Ortega's exit has nothing to do with Barrera's sacking. They said Ortega's representatives informed Spyglass before the actors' strike that the «Wednesday» star would not be returning for another «Scream» movie.
According to multiple sources, Ortega either had no deal or, in the renegotiating of her option, asked what the movie company deemed was too much money.
