Will Winona Ryder and Michael Keaton finally reunite in Tim Burton's planned "Beetlejuice 2" movie?
While Burton has yet to announce if the studio has already green lighted the project, the 57-year-old award winning director reveal to Yahoo! Movies that a script has already been done.
"There's a script now, that I think is closer to what it could be and I'm excited about it," Burton excitingly said. "I wouldn't call it so much a sequel, but it'll have some characters [from the original 'Beetlejuice']. It's a bit too early to say but it's definitely something that's on my radar and something I'd love to do."
While he did reveal that there will be returning characters in "Beetlejuice 2," he refused to mention the names of the said actors.
Given that Winona Ryder and Michael Keaton have already confirmed their involvement in the sequel, veteran actress, Geena Davis, also expressed her interest in reprising her role.
In an interview with ET Online, the 59-year-old actress who played the role of Barbara Maitland, the newly-departed ghost and wife of Alec Baldwin's character Adam, in the original film, confessed that she "would love to" if asked.
"I did hear that it's really happening," she said of the sequel. "No one's talked to me about it. I would love to! That was one of my favorite movies, too."
She added, "Ghosts probably don't age, and it's going to be 30 years now. Of course, I haven't aged, but I think Alec Baldwin (Adam Maitland) maybe has aged, perhaps," she quipped.
Winona Ryder on the other hand has confirmed "Beetlejuice 2" movie during her appearance on the "Late Night with Seth Meyers."
"I think I can confirm it because Tim Burton did this interview," Ryder told Meyers when asked about the sequel. "It was very hush-hush, top secret, 'I don't know what may happen, I don't know,' and then he was doing some press for 'Big Eyes' and he did an on-camera interview and he said, 'Oh yeah, we're doing it and Winona's gonna be in it.' So can I say...? I mean if he said it. But I really don't know much more than anybody else."
With Tim Burton helming the project, "Beetlejuice 2" has no scheduled release date yet.
