The Beetlejuice 2 Super Extended Trailer opens with an eerie yet whimsical sequence, taking viewers back to the quirky, gothic world where the bizarre meets the comical. The familiar strains of Danny Elfman’s playful, yet slightly ominous score set the tone as the camera swoops through a misty graveyard, past twisted trees and peculiar tombstones.
We catch our first glimpse of the iconic Maitland house, now even more eccentric with its mismatched architecture and otherworldly decorations. Inside, Lydia Deetz (Winona Ryder) is seen, now an adult but still with her trademark dark attire and sharp wit. She’s struggling with a new paranormal dilemma, one that has stirred up the ghostly chaos she thought she left behind.
And then, with a flash of green light and a burst of chaotic energy, Beetlejuice (Michael Keaton) is back! The trailer showcases his grand and over-the-top return, bursting through walls, causing furniture to dance, and generally bringing his brand of mayhem to the screen. His irreverent humor and wild antics are on full display, with Keaton fully embracing the character’s mischievous charm.
New characters are introduced, including a fresh set of unwitting humans and ghosts who get caught up in Beetlejuice’s schemes. There are quick cuts of slapstick humor, supernatural pranks, and elaborate, surreal set pieces that push the boundaries of the living and the dead. The trailer also hints at a larger plot involving a new threat to both the ghost world and the living, one that might even be too much for Beetlejuice to handle.
