Michael Keaton Refused to Have ‘Too Much Technology’ on ‘Beetlejuice 2’ Set After ‘Years of Standing in Front of a Giant Screen’ on Sets


Michael Keaton said the only way to make "Beetlejuice 2" was for it to be handmade and not rely on too much technology.

Keaton stressed how refreshing it was to embrace practical filmmaking after “years” spent working with giant green screens. There’s a woman in the great waiting room for the afterlife literally with a fishing line – I want people to know this because I love it – tugging on the tail of a cat to make it move.” New faces to the franchise include “Wednesday” star Jenna Ortega, Willem Dafoe, Monica Bellucci and Justin Theroux.
