Though viewers saw the ghost more frequently decades before,Beetlejuice 2 Cast is here at last. Burton's distinctive visual technique gave Winona Ryder and Michael Keaton career-defining parts, so in 1988 the success was a mix of horror and dark comedy. Beetlejuice produced a Broadway musical, multiple video games, and an animated series running length. Seth Grahame-Smith hired in 2011 to write the Beetlejuice script, but the sequel has been hell ever since.
