bizarre part is to see it 37 years later this and here we all are I didn't do this one no we didn't do this one uh but this movie so has the same Spirit as the first one it's as if it is a new it's not a sequel It's a whole it's an original movie but you'll recognize some of the characters what was it like reunite him with the original cast oh too exciting why do you what do you think it was just lovely and you know like family you're just instantly back together like no time has passed that's what it felt like but then also the new cast with Jana as well I mean what was that like Jana is a very cool young woman wow Beyond talented just really very cool very playful and loose and collaborative and yeah she more than fit in I think she inspired this movie I think Tim working with her on Wednesday really pushed him to do this really wow that's huge phe indeed that's true what was the first moment like when you saw Michael back in the suit well when you first see him he's just talking as himself but he's in full hair and makeup he's got the mold growing all over his face and he's going hey do you believe we're here we're doing this movie isn't this a great like do you know what you look like good no it's very exciting and just finally then why should people go and see be be why do you think I'm going to answer everything with why do you think yeah because that's fun and crazy and wildly inventive and beautiful looking and nuts scary moments actually kind of creepy but then there's a laugh right after a great laugh so yeah cuz it's great that's why and you're also amazed on

that old either um so it is it's been a long time and usually you're kind of suspicious when people return to material after such a long time but this was uh it was connected you know and uh I felt like Tim was really uh firing on all cylinders and he's really fun to work with really energetic really creative and really asks you to invent things and play with them and that's that's fun and how special has it been for you getting to be a part of the SW H it's good I mean we'll see I mean it's one thing to do it and then one one thing to see how it gets Reed but uh this is pretty good and uh we just showed it in Venice and it was a good reception so well I thought you had amazing in this I love your character how much fun did you have playing wolf Jackson well it's fun because the character I get to make fun of actors actually and uh so I get to make fun of myself a little bit so that's that's always a healthy and enjoyable thing to do and why should people go and see be juice

Beetlejuice is such a part of our social Fabric or cultural Fabric and to finally be able to sort of just step into the world is pretty impressive and pretty special and what was that moment like on set when you first saw Michael and all the suit it was actually offset it was I saw him uh doing like um like we're doing hair and makeup tests and I hadn't met him yet and they said why don't you come in and and meet Michael he's in his trailer so I went I knocked on his trailer and he opened the door and looked down at me and he's full Beetle Juice regalia and it was pretty special and tell us a bit about your character in this in Rory Rory's kind of can I say he's a bit of a dag he's a bit of a dag um and he's um he's hilarious he's sort of self-centered and um in this kind of sick codependent relationship with Winona and um he's sort of this spiritual he's sort of the worst boyfriend in the world and just finally then why should people go and see beel juice be juice well you
