Picture this: Winona Ryder, Michael Keaton, Jenna Ortega, Monica Bellucci, Catherine O’Hara, and the man of the hour, Willem Dafoe, teaming up to bring the afterlife to life in Tim Burton’s long-awaited sequel to the 1988 classic, Beetlejuice. Mark your calendars for September 6, 2024, because that’s when the ghostly shenanigans hit the big screen.
In an interview with Variety that’ll tickle your funny bone, Willem spilled the ectoplasmic details about his role. Brace yourself – he’s not just any old spirit; he’s a ghostly police officer. Officer Spooky McDead is here to keep the afterlife in check, making sure the supernatural world doesn’t turn into a cosmic carnival.
“I haven’t seen a single snippet of the movie yet, but trust me, it was a hoot to film,” Willem chuckles. “In this spectral spectacle, I play a cop from the beyond. In my previous life, I was a B-movie action star – think explosions, dramatic poses, the whole shebang. But then, kaboom! An accident of epic proportions catapulted me to the other side.”

Willem Dafoe sure can, and he’s bringing the laughs from the afterlife straight to your popcorn-filled hands.
