Beetlejuice Beetlejuice picks up decades after the first movie with a death in the family, leading Delia, Lydia and Astrid to return home to Winter River.
"Still haunted by Betelgeuse, Lydia's life soon gets turned upside down when her rebellious teenage daughter discovers a mysterious portal to the afterlife," the official synopsis confirmed.

Other notable cast members include Justin Theroux, Monica Bellucci, Willem Dafoe, Burn Gornam, Danny DeVito and House of the Dragon star Arthur Conti.
Keaton recently spoke about how the sequel improves upon its predecessor, sharing: "[It has] a stronger story. There's more of a connection for the audience in terms of the other characters.
"There's things in here that I wasn't ready for, that are beyond delightful," he continued. "Instead of saying, 'I can't wait until this thing shows up,' or, 'I just want this thing called Beetlejuice to go nuts'."
