Beetlejuice 2 is coming. Jenna Ortega is auditioning for a role in the film

The sequel to the famous “Beetlejuice” has been talked about for years. Rumors about the creation of the continuation were confirmed by both director Tim Burton and Winona Ryder, who played in the first part. Last year, it was reported again that work on the sequel was resumed, and now there is talk that Jenna Ortega may join the cast.

As reported “”, Jenna Ortega is applying for a role in “Beetlejuice 2”. In this way, the actress could continue working alongside Tim Burton, who directed several episodes of the series “Wednesday”. At the moment, neither Warner Bros., which is behind the production of the film, nor a representative of Ortega, have confirmed the news provided by the American portal, which refers to several sources.

Will Jenna Ortega star in another Tim Burton movie?

According to information obtained by “THR”, the director of the film is again to be Tim Burton, and production may begin in late May or early June in London. The problem that has caused that work on the film has not yet been started is the unset budget.

The original “Beetlejuice” from 1988 still enjoys great sympathy among viewers. He managed to earn as much as $80 million on a budget of only $15 million and was honored with an Oscar in 1989 for best make-up. Over the years, there has been much talk of making a sequel, but Burton himself was hesitant to work on it.

The cast of the first part featured Alec Baldwin, Geena Davis, Jeffrey Jones, Catherine O’Hara and Winona Ryder. It was the daughter of Lydia played by her that Jenna Ortega would take, who remembers working with Burton very well on “Wednesday”. As it turns out, she remembers working with him very warmly:

It was a crazy experience. I was lucky to work with an iconic director who is not only one of the sweetest directors I have worked with, but also the most detail oriented.
