In a September interview with The Independent, Tim Burton mentioned that he aimed to maintain the same vibe in Beetlejuice 2 as the original fantasy horror comedy.
“I really enjoyed it,” he said. “I tried to strip everything and go back to the basics of working with good people and actors and puppets. It was kind of like going back to why I liked making movies.”
Speaking to Entertainment Tonight at the 75th annual Emmy Awards in January 2024, Ortega described her experience filming Beetlejuice 2 as “some of the most fun I’ve ever had on a set.” She praised the film for being “visually so exciting” thanks to its use of practical effects.
“Everything was practical. I think we’re not using very much CGI or something like that at all,” Ortega said. “Everyone did an incredible job. I felt so lucky to be there, it was insane. … I can’t wait for people to see.”
In an August conversation with The Wrap, Beetlejuice 2 cinematographer Haris Zambarloukos teased details about the sequel’s story.“At its heart, Beetlejuice is a story about a family,” Zambarloukos shared. (via The Wrap)
