"I wanted to get Geena and Alec back, but it just didn't work out," Burton said. "I was really focused on something else, and it was just one of those things where it didn't come together." Burton did not elaborate on what he was "focused on" at the time, but he did say that he is still very excited about the sequel and that he believes it will be a worthy follow-up to the original. "I think it's going to be a really fun movie," Burton said. "It's got a great cast, and I think the script is really strong. I'm really looking forward to seeing it come together." The "Beetlejuice" sequel is scheduled to be released in 2023. The film will star Winona Ryder as Lydia Deetz, Michael Keaton as Beetlejuice, and Catherine O'Hara as Delia Deetz. It is unclear if any other original cast members will return for the sequel. However, Burton has said that he is open to the possibility of cameos from other actors who appeared in the original film. The original "Beetlejuice" was a critical and commercial success, grossing over $230 million worldwide. The film has since become a cult classic, and it is still popular with audiences today. Fans of the film have been eagerly awaiting a sequel for years, and they are sure to be disappointed to learn that Davis and Baldwin will not be returning.
