Michael Keaton Turned Into Beetlejuice “Like He Was Possessed By A Demon”

Nearest 30-plus years clear of the nature, Michael Keaton had some doubts about discovering Beetlejuice once more for Tim Burton‘s impending sequel, Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice.

“There’s been so much merchandising of it, I had to drop back to where it started,” Keaton informed Empire. “I had to go, ‘What was my unusual imagination even thinking about when I was developing it in the first place?’ As opposed to seeing a coffee mug or a golf-club cover [adorned with Betelgeuse’s face].”

The nature is now not just a few bizarre made from his creativeness; It’s now iconic within the Tim Burton canon — if no longer the canon of cinema itself.

“The ubiquity of Beetlejuice as a character in the culture created its own challenges. “”That was once fucking bizarre,” Keaton admitted to Empire. “To be honest with you – I’m being very frank – it was off-putting, to look and go, ‘I don’t want to look like all these little things, fuck that – what was the thing that started this?’”

In line with Burton and and Keaton’s co-stars, the actor turns out to have discovered it.

“It was like he was possessed by a demon, because he just went right back into it,” stated Burton. “It was insane,” recalled Catherine O’Hara. “Insane.” Jenna Ortega put it thusly: “It was like an animal with a gun had just walked into the room. To watch him physically change and appear and Michael Keaton to be gone, and for me to be dealing with this Beetlejuice guy…It blew my mind.”

Keaton, a minimum of is proud of the movie itself.

“I love it,” he stated. “I absolutely love this thing. And I don’t [usually] talk like that. I unabashedly love this. It was not easy to pull off, and I think we did it in spades.”
