Ahead of their upcoming Tim Burton collaboration

Michael Keaton Sings Jenna Ortega’s Praise Ahead of Their Upcoming ‘Beetlejuice 2’ Film

Over the years, Jenna Ortega has made a name for herself by playing some rather
dark yet fascinating characters. While the star may have shot to fame with
Netflix’s Wednesday, she has since taken up other equally spooky roles like in
her upcoming film, Beetlejuice Beetlejuice. Although the movie will not be
making its way to theatres for months, the actor, Michael Keaton, shared his
thoughts on working on set with the 21-year-old.

While Ortega’s characters might all fall on the dark side, the beloved American
actor revealed that the actress’ live presence was so much different from what
audiences believed.


MICHAEL KEATON’S THOUGHTS ON JENNA ORTEGA

For years now, Hollywood fans have been gushing over Jenna Ortega and her
stunning performances. However, a well-known actor was recently added to that
list. In a conversation with Entertainment Weekly, Michael Keaton opened up
[https://www.etonline.com/michael-keaton-on-working-with-jenna-ortega-in-beetlejuice-beetlejuice-shes-really-special]
about working with the 21-year-old on the sets of Beetlejuice Beetlejuice. The
72-year-old ended up stating, “She’s really special.”

“She showed up and just immediately knew what the tone was,” Keaton continued.
While he seemed to be awestruck at the skill of the young star, he could not
help but admit that she was “good.” With Ortega taking on the role of Lydia
Deetz’s daughter in the film, fans are sure in for a treat when it finally
releases. Although the stars seem to be giving the world some insight into the
film, fans still have quite a long wait before they can judge the project for
themselves.

Although the casting confirmation came out last year, the Warner Bros. Studio
decided to give themselves extra time in case another strike broke loose.


WHEN WILL JENNA ORTEGA’S BEETLEJUICE 2 BE RELEASED?

In March 2023, it was revealed that Jenna Ortega had been cast in Tim Burton’s
upcoming Beetlejuice Beetlejuice. The actress was said to be joined by the
original cast members like Michael Keaton, Winona Ryder, and Catherine O’Hara.
While Warner Bros. had already teased their film, they chose to have their fan
wait it out by choosing a release date in September 2024.

Although fans might have to wait a while before the film releases, there has
been no doubt that Ortega will do justice to the role. After all, it will not be
the 21-year-old’s first time playing on the darker and weirder side of
Hollywood. This project could even take over the popularity she reached with
Netflix’s Wednesday.
