Tim Burton returns to the director's chair for his sequel Beetlejuice Beetlejuice.
One of the most successful English-language filmmakers of all time just delivered another hit, pushing his personal box office achievements past major new milestones. Tim Burton broke out in the 1980s, and went on to deliver an all-time blockbuster just a few years into his career, with Batman. In the 2010s, Burton released one of the few films at the time to have cracked the $1 billion mark, Alice in Wonderland.
But adjusted for inflation, Batman could very well be his biggest hit. With $411 million in 1989 dollars, Batman was the biggest Warner Bros. hit until 1996, when it was overtaken by Twister. It was also the highest-grossing movie based on a DC property until Christopher Nolan’s The Dark Knight dethroned it in 2008. Incidentally, Batman wasn’t green-lit until after Burton’s Beetlejuice had proven itself at the box office.
Also starring Jenna Ortega, Justin Theroux, Monica Bellucci and Willem Dafoe, Beetlejuice Beetlejuice is playing in theaters. Stay tuned to Collider for more updates.
