Beetlejuice Cosplay is one last take on the terrifying ghost before the new sequel.

The new Beetlejuice cosplay perfectly captures the ghost played by Michael Keaton. Directed by Tim Burton, the horror-comedy film follows the story of a newly deceased couple trapped as ghosts in their old home, seeking help from the clownish and gruff ghost Beetlejuice to scare the new owners. A sequel to the 1988 film directed by Burton is currently underway, with Keaton and Winona Ryder reprising their roles alongside actress Jenna Ortega, who played Wednesday.

Ahead of Beetlejuice 2, a new snug-fitting Keaton Ghost cosplay has been created by Instagram account @cosplaydad_uk. Check out the cosplay below:

With makeup, wigs and costumes done by other people, the cosplay perfectly captures all the iconic aspects of Beetlejuice’s look, including his unruly hair, messy makeup and striped suit. Details say that, Beetlejuice 2 is currently in production and both Ortega and Ryder have been seen on set, not to forget Keaton’s character, who constantly refers to himself as “the craziest ghost.”

Why is Beetlejuice so popular?

Beetlejuice was a critical and commercial success upon its release in 1988, grossing over $74 million on a $15 million budget and winning the Academy Award for Best Makeup. This success has led to an animated series in 2018, a video game series, a stage musical, and a sequel planned for 2024. Beetlejuice’s popularity over the years, also evidenced by cosplays such as these, can be attributed to his memorability. and his singularity as a character. Beetlejuice’s quirky personality and “It’s show time!” Including one-line lyrics remain popular and have contributed to his enduring popularity.

The Beetlejuice cosplay comes as the sequel is being shot ahead of its September 2024 release date. Set photos for Beetlejuice 2 show Jenna Ortega’s character wearing a wedding dress, with Winona Ryder as her mother, Lydia Deetz, dressed in gothic attire. While these two characters are getting all the attention due to set photos circulating online, we hope we see Keaton in Beetlejuice costume again soon.
