“Beetlejuice Beetlejuice” will continue the story that began in 1988. The film follows Lydia, her mother, and her daughter, as they return to Winter River, the setting of the first film. Ortega plays Astrid, Lydia’s rebellious daughter, who invites Beetlejuice back into their lives after she accidentally opens the Afterlife portal.
The film is directed by Tim Burton, who directed the original and has worked with Ortega in the past. “I really enjoyed it,” said Burton to People when discussing his return to the movie’s universe. “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.”
