Another possibility is that, since Depp had already voiced a Tim Burton character in Corpse Bride, the director didn't want any vocal overlap.
Johnny Depp and Tim Burton have made nearly a billion dollars for Hollywood but have not made a movie together since the critically reviled bomb Dark Shadows (2012).
Burton believes that the entertainment landscape has shifted to the point where it no longer makes sense for him to collaborate with the entertainment giant. He explained that his experience working on “Dumbo” made him realize that Disney had gotten too big for him.

"With Beetlejuice now on the loose in Los Angles, California where Lydia's husband 'Alex Loughty' (Robert Downey Jr.) works, the Loughty Family must come together to defeat the ghost with the most once again..."
What to know about “Beetlejuice 2” “Beetlejuice 2,” which marks Burton's first feature film since 2019's “Dumbo,” is a sequel to Burton's 1988 hit “Beetlejuice.” The film starred Alec Baldwin and Geena Davis as newly deceased ghosts trying to scare a family away from their Connecticut home.
It was something I could feel. He liked the characters, he was interested in acting for the art of it, not the business of it. It was exciting to see somebody play different things, the idea of this transformation from film to film always excited me."

Burton also praised Jenna Ortega's style of working on her character. "She's one of the most aware, not only as an actress, but everything, around the camera, the set. She's a very special talent. And she's done a lot of horror movies, which I love too.
Burton was born in Burbank, California on August 25, 1958. His father is of Dutch, English, French, German, and Scottish descent and His mother is of Croatian, German, Norwegian, and Swedish descent.
Burton's frequent collaborators Michael McDowell and Caroline Thompson wrote the screenplay. Over the course of its original run, “Nightmare” grossed $50 million at the domestic box office.
After graduating from high school, he attended California Institute of the Arts. Like so many others who graduated from that school, Burton's first job was as an animator for Disney.
In 1985, following his departure from the Disney studios, he created his first feature film: Pee-Wee's Big Adventure. This was followed by Beetlejuice (1988), Batman (1989), Edward Scissorhands (1990) and The Nightmare Before Christmas (1993).
As nice as it would be to return to see how their lives have developed since the movie ended, it would be difficult to match the expectations of viewers, who had decades to picture their future. For now, it seems that The Nightmare Before Christmas will never get a sequel.
