Box Office Triumph

The Beetlejuice movie opened with a bang, raking in $110 million at the US box office. Surpassing its own projections, this highly-anticipated sequel has easily outshone the original movie’s total lifetime earnings of $74.7 million.

Continuing the Legacy

Set three decades after the original, Beetlejuice movie brings back Michael Keaton, Winona Ryder, and Catherine O'Hara, while introducing Jenna Ortega as Astrid, Lydia's teenage daughter. The plot thickens as the Deetz women confront chaos after a tragic event leads them back to the ghost house in Winter River.

Record-Setting Success

Director Tim Burton celebrates the second-biggest opening of his career, following Alice in Wonderland's $116.1 million.

Critical Reception

With a respectable 76% rating on Rotten Tomatoes, Beetlejuice movie slightly lags behind its predecessor's 83%. The film also features performances from notable actors including Justin Theroux, Monica Bellucci, Willem Dafoe, and Danny DeVito.
