These ‘Beetlejuice’ Behind the Scenes Photos Will Make You Smile
And no, we still don’t have any real news on the sequel.
Next year will be a big year for Beetlejuice, as the beloved Tim Burton film will turn the ripe old age of 30. The film was released on March 30th, 1988, which means we’re literally just about one year away from the big celebration. Of course, it needn’t be an anniversary to celebrate a film as awesome as Beetlejuice. So ya know what? We’re not waiting. Waiting sucks.
Over on Imgur this week, one fan (redditmason) put together a 34-image gallery of behind the scenes shots from the set of Beetlejuice, most of which I personally had never seen. Granted, many of these photographs have been floating around the net for a while now, but we just figured you could use a smile today. After all, it’s Monday. And Mondays, like waiting, totally suck.
The behind the scenes images showcase how some of the film’s iconic special effects were pulled off, but it’s the photos of the cast and crew (including Michael Keaton, Winona Ryder and Alec Baldwin) goofing around on set that really brought a smile to my face. Check out the full gallery below, and view some freshly unearthed Beetlejuice workprint scenes while you’re at it!
Christopher Landon (Happy Death Day, Freaky) is staying busy here in 2024, directing not only the werewolf movie Big Bad but also an upcoming thriller titled Drop.
The project for Blumhouse and Platinum Dunes is being described as a “fast-paced thriller,” and Deadline reports today that Violett Beane (Truth or Dare) has joined the cast.
Newcomer Jacob Robinson has also signed on to star in the mysterious thriller. Previously announced, Meghann Fahy (“White Lotus”) will be leading the cast.
Landon recently teased on Twitter, “This is my love letter to DePalma.”
Jillian Jacobs and Chris Roach wrote the script.
Michael Bay, Jason Blum, Brad Fuller and Cameron Fuller — “who brought the script in to Platinum Dunes” — are producing the upcoming Drop. Sam Lerner is an executive producer.
THR notes, “The film is a Platinum Dunes and Blumhouse production for Universal.”
