]]>Beetlejuice Beetlejuice sees three generations of the Deetz women returning to Winter River after an unexpected family tragedy. The trouble starts when Lydia’s rebellious teenage daughter Astrid accidently opens a portal to the Afterlife.
“With trouble brewing in both realms, it’s only a matter of time until someone says Beetlejuice’s name three times and the mischievous demon returns to unleash his very own brand of mayhem,” reads the film’s official logline.
In addition to Keaton as Beetlejuice, this long-awaited sequel will also mark the return of Winona Ryder and Catherine O’Hara as Lydia and Delia Deetz. Jenna Ortega (Wednesday) will join them as Lydia’s daughter Astrid, along with Willem Dafoe (Poor Things), Justin Theroux (The Leftovers), Burn Gorman (Turn: Washington’s Spies), and Monica Bellucci (Matrix franchise).
Tim Burton came back as the director of Beetlejuice Beetlejuice, while the Wednesday duo Alfred Gough and Miles Millar wrote the script. Warner Bros. Pictures will release the film theatrically on September 6.

]]>The new trailer opens with a voiceover from Keaton’s Bruce Wayne, saying, “I lost my parents. That pain made me who I am. I spent a lifetime trying to right the wrongs of the past as if fighting crime would bring my parents back. You actually did it.”
Batman’s voiceover references the central plot point of the film—The Flash/Barry Allen (Ezra Miller) using his superpowers to travel back in time in an attempt to save his parents’ lives. He ends up inadvertently altering the future and finds himself trapped in a reality where General Zod (Michael Shannon) returned to power.
The Flash is expected to feature cameos from several DCU heroes, including Ben Affleck as Batman and Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman. The cast will also include Sasha Calle, Kiersey Clemons, Ron Livingston, Maribel Verdú, and Antje Traue.
The Flash dazzled the audience and the critics at its CinemaCon premiere, and it’s expected to hit the theatres on June 16.

]]>Goodrich centers on an art dealer named Andy Goodrich (Keaton), whose life turns upside down after his second wife leaves him and enters a 90-day rehab program. He’s thrust into the world of modern parenthood and must seek help from his adult daughter Grace (Kunis) to raise his nine-year-old twins.
Goodrich marks the second directorial effort for Hallie Meyers-Shyer, who also wrote the script for this project. Keaton and Kunis will executive produce the film alongside Amy Pascal, while Jason Cloth and Dave Caplan’s C2 Motion Picture Group, Daniela Taplin Lundberg, and Kevin Mann are in charge of producing it.
Keaton is fresh off the success of the Hulu mini-series Dopesick, for which he won a Golden Globe, Emmy, Critics’ Choice, and SAG Award. We’ll soon get to see him return as Bruce Wayne/Batman in The Flash, three decades after the last time he played the iconic character.
As for Kunis, she recently starred in Netflix’s Luckiest Girl Alive and had a guest role on That ‘90s Show. She’s also attached to the action-comedy Jackpot, co-starring Bryan Cranston and Jennifer Garner.

]]>Back in 2021, Warner Bros. decided to create a number of feature films specifically for HBO Max. Amongst those greenlit for the streaming network was Batgirl. The film would be based on the DC Comics character, Barbara Gordon, who is the daughter of Gotham City’s police commissioner and moonlights as a vigilante.
Leslie Grace of In The Heights had been cast in the titular role with Spider-Man: No Way Home star J.K. Simmons playing Commissioner James Gordon, Doom Patrol actor Brendan Fraser as Firefly, and Morbius star Michael Keaton appearing as Batman.
Filming took place in Scotland between November 2021 and March 2022 with Adil El Arbi and Bilall Fallah of Bad Boys fame helming the project.
Despite the movie being complete, Warner Bros. has decided not to release it on HBO Max or, in fact, anywhere at all. The decision is reportedly due to the company’s desire for DC films to rather be theatrical blockbusters. As Batgirl was budgeted to screen in homes on HBO Max, and not for a major global release in theaters, the $90 million production has effectively been killed.
The Scooby-Doo adaptation, Scoob!: Holiday Haunt, which would have served as a sequel to the 2020 film, Scoob!, has also been shelved by the studio.

]]>It was presumed that the Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald actor may never work again after the damaging allegations made against him, but a Google search has given his legion of fans new hope.
A search for the forthcoming Beetlejuice sequel lists Depp’s name amongst the all-star cast that features Michael Keaton, Winona Ryder, and David Harbour.
The original Beetlejuice was a box office hit when it came out in 1988 and has become a cult classic over the years. Although a sequel has been in the works for more than three decades, production is finally underway with a release scheduled for 2025. Keaton is set to return as the titular character, while Ryder will reprise her role as Lydia Deetz.
If the rumor of Depp joining Beetlejuice 2 is true, it will reunite him with his long-time collaborator, Tim Burton, who will once again assume the director’s chair. It would be the pair’s 9th movie together.
The film would also be the first step in Depp getting his career back on track after the jury awarded him $15 million worth of damages in his defamation case against his ex-wife, Amber Heard.
“The jury gave me my life back,” he said following the verdict.
Heard’s attorney has confirmed that the Aquaman actress intends to appeal the decision.

]]>Keaton last played the DC superhero in Tim Burton’s Batman Returns (1992). Almost thirty years on, Keaton is rumored to be returning in the upcoming DC Extended Universe movie, The Flash.
According to The Wrap, it is currently unclear whether Keaton will be appearing alongside Ezra Miller in the feature. If he does, it may be that his role is small.
The Flash will introduce fans to the concept of the DC multiverse. This means that Robert Pattinson’s portrayal of Batman would not be impacted by Keaton’s possible return.
As it stands, Pattinson is set to make his debut as the caped hero next fall. The release date of The Batman was previously June 2021 but it has since been pushed back as a result of delayed production due to the coronavirus.
