Tim Burton’s Beetlejuice Beetlejuice to open Venice film festival
The much-anticipated sequel to the director’s 1988 hit Beetlejuice will get its world premiere at the festival in August
The screening will be the world premiere of the film, which reunites original stars Michael Keaton and Winona Ryder with Burton. Festival director Alberto Barbera said in a statement that it “marks the long-awaited return of one of the most iconic characters of Tim Burton’s cinema, but also the happy confirmation of the extraordinary visionary talent and the masterly realisation of one of the most fascinating auteurs of his time”. In 2023, the Zendaya tennis film Challengers was given the slot, only to drop out as a result of the Hollywood actors’ strike.
