‘Beetlejuice Beetlejuice’ New Trailer Shows Off Returning Cast, Dark Humor and Danny Elfman’s Score

John Nguyen

The second official trailer for Beetlejuice Beetlejuice is here, and I have goosebumps hearing Danny Elfman’s score and Michael Keaton as Beetlejuice laughing in the background. Tim Burton is back as the director for the sequel with Winona Ryder, Catherine O’Hara and Keaton all reprising their legendary roles.

The trailer for the sequel has all the ingredients to bring back the magic of the classic film with the returning cast, the dark humor, and the creepy and melodic score from Danny Elfman.

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.
