Jenna Ortega is likely to share screen space with the Hollywood legend

Will Michael Keaton Join Jenna Ortega in &#8216;Wednesday&#8217; Season 2?

Breaking Stranger Things’ record is no easy feat. After all, it is Netflix’s
flagship show. The streaming giant’s server crashed on the night part 2 of the
show dropped. Although Wednesday didn’t cause the streamer to crash, it was an
ultimate smash if viewership is taken into account. It has now entered the
most-watched English shows of all time in the ranks. As expected, without
wasting any time, the streamer quickly renewed the show. And while we still
haven’t gotten any information regarding the release of the second season, we
have some casting updates. Interestingly, Michael Keaton is set to join Jenna
Ortega in the darkly comedic show. 

As reported by Giant Freakin Robot,

Michael Keaton is in talks to join the Tim Burton show. If the actor does join
the cast list, it will be his nth number of collaborations with Burton. The duo
has worked together several times in the 1980s. Burton created the iconic
character Beetlejuice, which Keaton played marvelously. They worked together
again in Dumbo. Before Christian Bale, Robert Pattinson or Ben Affleck became
the Dark Knight, it was Keaton that originally popularized the vigilante. Hence,
it is very likely for Keaton to reunite with Burton again after years. 



The Batman star is also currently experiencing a career resurgence. He was roped
into the Marvel fold and played the Spider-Man villain. And he is soon to don
the masked vigilante suit again for the upcoming The Flash. His performance in
Spotlight and Birdman also received nods from the critics.

Although this is wonderful news, we still don’t have any information about his
character. But we can surely speculate.


WHAT ROLE CAN MICHAEL KEATON PLAY ALONGSIDE JENNA ORTEGA IN WEDNESDAY 2?

The Spotlight star can reprise his role of Beetlejuice in the second installment
of Wednesday. This would actually make a great crossover since Jenna Ortega is
reportedly joining the cast of Beetlejuice 2!

However, there is still scope for writers to write in a full-fledged role for
the actor. The finale showed Nevermore’s principal dying and the school shutting
down. For sure, the school would need a new principal and Keaton can perfectly
fill in the role. Certainly, the duo can bring a new vibe to the show since
Jenna is already very clear about what she wants for Wednesday for season 2.
