Astrid! Buddy! All you had to do was not say the name three times. You had one job!
In our universe, it’s almost impossible to imagine a world in which anyone doesn’t know the cardinal rule surrounding dead guys with weird names—much less the daughter of Lydia Deetz herself. Of course, the fictional town of Winter River exists in a universe where Beetlejuice the movie doesn’t exist, leading that very same daughter to say the cursed name three times and summon cinema’s #1 bio-exorcist exactly as we knew she would. Thus, Betelgeuse —and Beetlejuice , the now-franchise—are reborn.
At one point, our favorite poltergeist terrorizes a squealing Justin Theroux with some half-seen hellspawn, asking, “Is this a figment of your imagination?” It’s hard not to see the question as a simultaneous nod to how real everything looks. We still don’t know much about the plot apart from its basic setup. Winona Ryder reprises her role as Lydia, now with a rebellious teenage daughter, Astrid , of her own.
