After the 81st Venice Film Festival, the cast of Beetlejuice 2 along with Tim Burton arrived in London for the UK premiere of Beetlejuice Beetlejuice where Tim had a conversation with The Hollywood Reporter. He told them that he is not really optimistic about creating Beetlejuice 3. In his comment, he stated-

Well, if [the same] time frame goes on, I’ll be about 100. So maybe. I doubt it”

With that being said, he was asked if the time frame was an issue, what was the idea for Beetlejuice 2 and what is the reason for a movie set in 1988 to get a sequel after 36 years in 2024? To this, he responded by saying-

Well, because the Lydia character [Ryder] interested me, getting older is where you start thinking about what happens in life. [She] starts as a cool teenager. Relationships … Do you have kids? What are they like? What do you like? How do you change? These are all things that I know and experience. So it felt more right to make this now, rather than back in, like, 1989″

So, with that being said, it is safe to say that Beetlejuice 3 is completely off the cards for Tim Burton. However, if another director thinks they can do a job as well as him, which is reflected in the early reviews of Beetlejuice 2, the threequel can still happen but the chances of that happening are slim. However, if it happens, we’ll be right here to let you know all about it. Till then, stay tuned with us for further updates!
