A release date for Beetlejuice 2 will be announced soon?

The 1988 cult horror comedy film sequel is reportedly gearing up after the previously planned project in the 1990's did not come to life.

Word has is that original director Tim Burton and screenwriter Seth Grahame-Smith are in talks and actively readying a new script for Beetlejuice 2.

Winona Ryder, Michael Keaton's costar in the hit horror comedy film previously teased that she is ready to come back and play the adult version of her character, Lydia Deetz. This is if the planned movie goes into production.

"It's a very precious movie to people. So there are a lot of people like, 'DON'T,'" Ryder explained to The Daily Beast.

Adding how much gratitude she has for her character and for the movie,

"I love Lydia so much. She was such a huge part of me. I would be really interested in what she is doing 27 years later ... I'm so associated with it. I think it gave me my career."

Keaton on the other hand told MTV that he's in constant communication with Burton discussing a Beetlejuice 2 movie release date. He did reveal that they are both excited and ready for the project.

"I've e-mailed Tim a couple of times, talked to the writer a couple of times, but all really, really preliminary stuff until relatively recently. I always said that's the one thing I'd like to do again, if I ever did anything again. But it kind of required Tim to be involved some way or another.

"Now it looks like he is involved. And without giving too much away we've talked to each other, and e-mailed each other, and if he's in, it's going to be hard not to be in."

While the planned film is still in its early stages and Tim Burton is still up for other movie projects, fans are eager to see the horrid looking yet extremely adorable Beetlejuice back on the screen.
