Beetlejuice 2 will see the return of director Tim Burton, which means these 10 major films in the director’s filmography will also have to return.
Ten Finn Wolfhard
Best known for Ghostbusters: Afterlife (2021) and Stranger Things (2016-2025).
aesthetics of stranger things Because it’s so close to Burton’s typical style, almost every actor from this show would appear in one of his films. However, Finn Wolfhard had his most significant film experience, starring in two films. Ghost Busters movie. Millie Bobby Brown has had an expansive career, but most of it has been in different genres. Wolfhard has shown time and time again that he is a great star of spooky adventures. like stranger things and Ghost Busters. In the future, he may enter a similar world. edward scissorhands and beetle juice.
9 Florence Pugh
Best known for Little Women (2019) and Black Widow (2021).
horror Midsummer He helped Florence Pugh break into Hollywood. oppenheimer It also shows why she’s perfect for a Burton movie. In several scenes, Pugh plays Gene Tatlock as a bemused and pensive character. She also does a great job in a chilling mystery. Don’t worry darlingg.
Pugh may be the character in a Burton movie who remains pathologically calm while the protagonist is distraught. Or maybe she’s on the hostile side of things.Pugh’s performance as Yelena black widow It shows how good she is at playing characters with a dark sense of humor. This archetype is often used in one of Burton’s films, as it is consistent with the great director’s sensibilities.
8 Kiernan Shipka
Best known for Carriers (2009) and Chilling Adventures of Sabrina (2018-2020).
Sabrina Spellman and Wednesday Addams is a scary movie with the combination of moody and happy that this genre requires. That being said, Kiernan Shipka was a wonderfully hilarious lead. Chilling Adventures of Sabrina. Although she is outwardly friendly, she perfectly emulates Burton’s style as she fits perfectly into a Halloween-esque story. If Ortega becomes Burton’s regular actress (and she definitely should), Burton could pair her with Shipka for a buddy cop mystery adventure. but, Shipka would also be great in a lead or supporting role in a Burton movie. On her own.
7 Vanessa Kirby
Best known for Pieces of a Woman (2020) and The Crown (2016-2023).
There’s a reason Helena Bonham Carter was chosen to play middle-aged Princess Margaret. crown, taking over the role from Vanessa Kirby. Both of them played the role of a sharply disillusioned princess with a morbid sense of humor. It would be great to see Kirby play a role similar to her past career in Carter in the future (she would be great playing Bellatrix in the movie) Harry potter reboot). Kirby has mainly starred in dramas, and was nominated for an Oscar for his role in Kirby. fragment of woman. but, Kirby can easily play a witty and slightly evil character In Burton’s movie.
Ranking all Tim Burton movies starring Helena Bonham Carter
The two began collaborating in 2001 and have since gone from being lovers to creating one of the most eccentric characters in film history.
6 kieran culkin
Best known for Scott Pilgrim vs. the World (2010) and Succession (2018-2023).
successor’sKieran Culkin is a good choice to play Burton’s villain. Throughout the show, Roman Roy cracks black jokes while hiding his inferiority complex. Culkin finally won a Golden Globe Award for her performance at the 2024 Golden Globe Awards. I can imagine characters with the same energy appearing in Burton’s films (albeit toned down in content). This may not be a likable character, but that’s exactly the point. inheritance It’s that the characters are unlikable and satirical. Culkin could similarly contribute to the story of Burton’s next film, in which he plays an objectively awful character who reveals something about the world.
Five barry cogan
Best known for Banshees of Inisherin (2022) and Saltburn (2023).
Barry Keoghan is definitely this year’s hottest “Horrible Murderer” star. In addition to his disturbing performance; salt burnthe Oscar-nominated actor will likely play the Joker batman part ii. Given that director Burton wanted to create an entirely new villain alongside iconic antagonists such as Oogie Boogie and Beetlejuice, it seems like fate that he would play the villain in a Burton movie. Corgan has several upcoming films, all of which are in post-production, and may be looking for new projects soon.
Four melissa barela
Best known for In the Heights (2021) and Scream (2022).
Ortega’s Scream co-star Melissa Barrera has a secondary connection to Burton, and Burton should definitely consider her for future films. In addition to new scream movie, Barrera stars in recent acclaimed romantic/horror fusion films your monster, The story of a lonely actress who falls in love with a monster who lives in her closet. It is inconceivable that Burton did not at least know about this film, and it is inconceivable that she was interested in its setting and lead actors. It would also be great to see Barrera and Ortega reunite on screen as new characters.
3 Anya Taylor-Joy
Known for “The Queen’s Gambit” (2020) and “Last Night in Soho” (2021).
Anya Taylor-Joy has a strong and captivating presence in all her movies and TV shows. Enhanced by her sharp features. She has appeared in various horror thriller films, sometimes with subtle supernatural or psychological twists. witch, thoroughbred, menuand last night in soho. There’s a lot Taylor-Joy could do in Burton’s film.Additionally, in her upcoming movies angerTaylor-Joy may be looking to solidify her status as an action star, while Burton is known for working with blockbuster stars.
2 jodie foster
Best known for The Silence of the Lambs (1991) and Nyad (2023).
Jodie Foster, who is nominated for an Oscar for the first time in about 20 years, is as big a star as ever. In addition to her most famous roles in horror films, silence of the lambsFoster is currently starring in the latest season of. true detective. With so much mystery and fear, she is an obvious choice to star in a Burton film. Many young actors are emerging to audition for Burton’s next film. Foster is the perfect choice to play a mentor and parental figure, creating a memorable dynamic with the young cast.
9 movies people mistake for being directed by Tim Burton
Tim Burton has one of the most distinctive styles of any major Hollywood filmmaker, and these films are often mistakenly thought to be part of his filmography.
1 Timothée Chalamet
Best known for Call Me by Your Name (2017), Dune (2021), and Wonka (2023).
Timothée Chalamet recently starred as Willy Wonka in Burton’s adjacent film, a different take on the same world that Burton brought to life. charlie and the chocolate factory. Indeed, Burton’s version supports the theory that Willy Wonka is a serial killer, while Chalamet’s version does not. but, Chalamet was good at portraying Willy’s eccentricity. And he could also use his other roles to lean into a different type of character.
Wonka It’s strange though dunes It is intense, Dispatch to France It’s unexpectedly nuanced, and Burton’s film and character are a combination of all three. moreover, Chalamet is an overall phenomenal actor and would be great in any genre. It’s still unclear what Tim Burton will do after that. beetle juicehe has Chalamet and many other talented actors to work with.
