Beetlejuice 3 director wonders if he's been ‘replaced' after development update
Legendary Hollywood director Tim Burton is questioning if he's been replaced after 'nobody told him' about plans for Beetlejuice 3. The 66-year-old filmmaker, who directed the original 1988 comedy horror classic and its 2024 sequel Beetlejuice Beetlejuice, has played down speculation that a third movie is definitely on the cards. Nostalgia for the original combined with the return of Michael Keaton as the titular self-proclaimed 'Ghost with the Most' and a starry supporting cast helped propel the sequel to $451,100,000 at the box office. Earlier this year, Warner Bros Pictures co-chairman/CEO Mike De Luca had insisted development on Beetlejuice 3 was 'imminent'. Upon hearing this, Burton told The Hollywood Reporter: 'Really? Nobody told me. Maybe I've been replaced.' Jenna Ortega, who appeared in the second film last year, quipped: 'Maybe I've been, too. Maybe [her character] Astrid dies and goes to heaven instead [of the films' Netherworld]. To view this video please enable JavaScript, and consider upgrading to a web browser that supports HTML5 video 'They should just take Baby Beetlejuice on tour and send him to Hawaii.' Burton pointed out that more than three decades passed between the first two films in the franchise, joking that 'the odds are not good' for a follow-up any time soon because he'd be 105 by then. The filmmaker added: 'I really, really enjoyed making this one, and [Warner Bros] didn't even really want to do it. 'We did it the same way I did the first one, with the actors doing improv. It was beautiful to see some of the old cast and have Jenna. But it's like trying to re-create the Wednesday dance scene. I love the characters, but I don't necessarily see it.' Burton also seemed to suggest he'd be unwilling to allow another director to step in and do it instead, as he feels 'very proprietary about everything I do, even if I don't own the characters'. He admitted too that 'when they did the [Beetlejuice Broadway musical], I got p****d'. Meanwhile, Ortega noted she would 'never' want to return to the Beetlejuice world without Burton steering the ship as it would be 'really wrong to get behind that project'. 'Without him involved, what is it? It is what it is because of Tim. There's no other film you can compare Beetlejuice to. So why would you do that? That would be a tad disrespectful.' The 22-year-old played the daughter of Winona Ryder's Lydia Deetz in Beetlejuice Beetlejuice, who is initially unwilling to entertain her mother's psychic abilities as someone still haunted by Beetlejuice. After a family tragedy, three generations of the family return home to Winter River. But Astrid turns their lives upside down when she accidentally opens the portal to the Afterlife. She has also collaborated with Burton on Netflix series Wednesday, where she plays the lead role, and which returns for season two next month. It's a project Burton previously revealed 're-energised' him after he became disillusioned with the movie industry. Back in April, Warner Bros executive De Luca had claimed plans were moving along for sequels for both Minecraft and Beetlejuice Beetlejuice. He told Deadline: 'Imminently. The ink might not be dry on the deals yet, but imminently.' De Luca insisted the studio was looking to capitalise on both film's success. More Trending He explained: 'To have two franchises emerge from our leadership team with Beetlejuice Beetlejuice and Minecraft, I feel like we're ahead of schedule.

Tim Burton addresses Beetlejuice 3 reports
Tim Burton has insisted "nobody told him" about plans for Beetlejuice 3. The 66-year-old filmmaker - who directed the original 1988 comedy horror classic and its 2024 sequel Beetlejuice Beetlejuice - has played down speculation that a third movie is definitely on the cards. Earlier this year, Warner Bros Pictures co-chairman/CEO Mike De Luca insisted development on Beetlejuice 3 was "imminent". Upon hearing this, Burton told The Hollywood Reporter: "Really? Nobody told me. Maybe I've been replaced." Jenna Ortega, who appeared in the second film last year, quipped: "Maybe I've been, too. Maybe [her character] Astrid dies and goes to heaven instead [of the films' Netherworld]. "They should just take Baby Beetlejuice on tour and send him to Hawaii." Burton pointed out that there was well over three decades between the first two films in the franchise - which stars Michael Keaton as the wisecracking ghoul - and joked "the odds are not good" for a follow-up any time soon. He said: "It took 35 years to make the second one, so by that time I'll be 105. I know those odds are not good. "I really, really enjoyed making this one, and [Warner Bros.] didn't even really want to do it. "We did it the same way I did the first one, with the actors doing improv. It was beautiful to see some of the old cast and have Jenna. "But it's like trying to re-create the Wednesday dance scene. I love the characters, but I don't necessarily see it." Burton also seemed to shrug off the idea of another director taking over the project, insisting he does feel an ownership over his projects. He added: "I feel very proprietary about everything I do, even if I don't own the characters. "When they did the [Beetlejuice Broadway musical], I got p*****." Meanwhile, Ortega noted she would "never" want to return to the Beetlejuice world without Burton steering the ship. She said: "Oh, I would never. I also think anybody would be really wrong to get behind that project. "Without him involved, what is it? It is what it is because of Tim. "There's no other film you can compare Beetlejuice to.

Tim Burton Appears Doubtful About Making ‘Beetlejuice 3'

(Photo by Stephane Cardinale - Corbis/Corbis via Getty Images) Beetlejuice Beetlejuice director Tim Burton said in a new interview that 'he loves the characters' but doesn't 'necessarily see' making another Beetlejuice film. Burton, of course, directed the blockbuster 2024 sequel 36 years after the release of the original Beetlejuice starring Michael Keaton, Winona Ryder and Catherine O'Hara, bringing back the trio of stars along with his Wednesday star Jenna Ortega as the daughter of Ryder's Lydia Deetz. During an interview with Burton and Ortega ahead of Netflix's Wednesday Season 2 —where it was also revealed that Netflix has renewed the show for a third season — The Hollywood Reporter asked the iconic director about Warner Bros. co-CEO Mike De Luca comment from an interview with Deadline in April where noted that development on Beetlejuice 3 was starting 'imminently.' 'Really? Nobody told me Maybe I've been replaced,' Burton told THR, while Ortega added, 'Maybe I've been, too. Maybe [her character] Astrid dies and goes to heaven instead [of the films' Netherworld]. They should just take Baby Beetlejuice on tour and send him to Hawaii.' Ortega, of course, was referring to one of the previous potential sequel ideas to the original Beetlejuice movie. After that, Burton reiterated for THR an answer to the idea about doing another Beetlejuice movie that he gave to the press (via Deadline) at Beetlejuice Beetlejuice's world premiere at the Venice Film Festival in August 2024. 'It took 35 years to make the second one, so by that time I'll be 105. I know those odds are not good,' Burton told THR. 'I really, really enjoyed making this one, and [Warner Bros.] didn't even really want to do it. We did it the same way I did the first one, with the actors doing improv. It was beautiful to see some of the old cast and have Jenna. But it's like trying to re-create the Wednesday dance scene. I love the characters, but I don't necessarily see it.'

Schaben / Los Angeles Times via Getty Images) Jenna Ortega Wouldn't Be Interested In Another 'Beetlejuice' Film Unless Tim Burton Was Directing It In response to Tim Burton's answer about being replaced as director for a third Beetlejuice movie, THR's reporter, James Hibberd said to the filmmaker, 'It's tough for me to imagine you being like, 'Let somebody else do it,'' — and it's something that the director doesn't like the idea of, either. 'I feel very proprietary about everything I do, even if I don't own the characters,' Burton told THR. 'When they did the [Beetlejuice Broadway musical], I got pissed.' THR then asked Jenna Ortega whether she would consider starring in another Beetlejuice film without Burton in the director's chair. 'Oh, I would never. I also think anybody would be really wrong to get behind that project,' Ortega told THR. 'Without him involved, what is it? It is what it is because of Tim. There's no other film you can compare Beetlejuice to. So why would you do that? That would be a tad disrespectful.' Wednesday Season 2 arrives on Netflix with four episodes on Aug. 6, with Part 2 and four episodes debuting Sept. 3.

Netflix renews Wednesday season 3, explores Addams Family spinoff with Tim Burton and Jenna Ortega
Netflix has officially renewed its hit series Wednesday for a third season, with early discussions underway for a potential spinoff based on other Addams Family characters, according to The Hollywood Reporter. The announcement comes ahead of season two's premiere on August 6. In their first joint interview, director Tim Burton and star Jenna Ortega reflected on the show's success, the intensity of production, and navigating public scrutiny. Ortega, now also a producer on the series, described the early filming experience as 'chaotic and stressful,' having started at just 17. 'I don't think I've ever shot a scene that hasn't kept me up at night,' she admitted. Despite these challenges, Wednesday became Netflix's most-watched English-language series, racking up 252 million views globally. Ortega's comments in a past podcast, where she mentioned changing lines to better fit the character, sparked controversy. Reflecting on the incident, she said, 'In no way did I mean to come across that way… it was a good lesson.' Burton, who directed both Wednesday and Beetlejuice Beetlejuice, praised Ortega's instinctual understanding of the role. 'You need this weird internal strength and clarity… you can't manufacture it,' he said. Showrunner Alfred Gough echoed this sentiment, noting, 'She has a 360-degree view… you don't find that with most actors.' With an expanded cast in season two — including Steve Buscemi and Billie Piper — the team has leaned into a bigger scale and more creative freedom. 'Netflix has a lot more trust this time around,' Ortega said. Beyond the show, both Ortega and Burton criticized the growing influence of AI in entertainment. Ortega warned that AI-generated content creates 'junk food for the brain,' while Burton said it left him feeling like something had been taken away from his work. While Warner Bros. hinted at early development for Beetlejuice 3, Burton stated he hasn't been officially approached. 'It took 35 years to make the second one… I know those odds aren't good,' he said. Ortega firmly added she wouldn't return to the project without Burton at the helm: 'It is what it is because of Tim.' As for the future of Wednesday, neither Burton nor Ortega are making long-term plans. 'I don't even have plans for tomorrow,' Ortega said. Burton agreed: 'Me either.'
