Jenna Ortega & Catherine O’Hara Interview: Beetlejuice Beetlejuice’s New Dance & Family Dynamics
As a gateway horror for kids, Beetlejuice (1998) served as a perfect family-friendly movie night because, really, at its core, the heart of the story was all about the Deetz family reconnecting. Sure, it took Michael Keaton as a deranged bio-exorcist for Lydia (Winona Ryder) and her stepmother, Delia (Catherine O’Hara), to put aside their differences, but they got there. Now, in Tim Burton’s long-awaited sequel, Beetlejuice Beetlejuice, a new generation is introduced to the madness by Wednesday star Jenna Ortega.
Burton is a beloved filmmaker, so stepping into not one but two major roles would be a huge responsibility for anyone. In this sequel, Ortega plays Astrid, the daughter of Lydia and the granddaughter of Delia Deetz. When the family returns to their old stomping grounds after a death in the family, the portal of the Afterlife is accidentally opened once again. Talk about generational trauma...
In preparation for Beetlejuice Beetlejuice to take over theaters, Collider’s Perri Nemiroff had the opportunity to sit with Ortega and O’Hara to talk about their on-screen chemistry and their undeniable family dynamic. Ortega also discusses the difference between her dance number in the sequel and the viral Wednesday dance, and why she isn’t worried about the pressures of carrying on the Tim Burton legacy.
