While Baldwin and Davis are unlikely to return, there are plenty of characters for the Beetlejuice sequel to pay homage to. Delia and Charlie Deetz could appear, but Jeffrey Jones' history as a sex offender makes Charlie's appearance less likely.
But hey, cameos are all the rage nowadays! Jeffrey Jones, who portrayed doting dad Charles Deetz in Beetlejuice, remains conspicuously absent from cast sheets for the sequel.
Given their legal issues, we probably won't see Alec Baldwin or Jeffrey Jones. There's a chance that Geena Davis might appear, at least as a cameo, but so far she has not been announced as part of the cast.
Director Tim Burton's interest in making Beetlejuice 2 was influenced by questions about the fate of each Deetz family member over the past 35 years. The absence of actor Jeffrey Jones from the cast suggests that a theory about Charles Deetz dying in the sequel could be accurate.
"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..."

Who turned down the role of Beetlejuice?
Other Betelgeuses.
He offered the role to Arnold Schwarzenegger (who turned it down because he was committed to The Running Man. Other considerations were Sammy Davis, Jr., Dudley Moore, and Sam Kinison (whose agent never relayed the interest to the comic).
She was fifteen, she turned sixteen on the movie. She was a prodigy. From a very young age, she was an old soul. She really got the words and the imagery.
Moreover, Michael Keaton is confirmed to be reprising his titular role as the ghost with the most. Following Warner Bros' announcement that Beetlejuice 2 is indeed happening, filming quickly began in May 2023.
Casting. Burton's original choice for Beetlejuice was Sammy Davis, Jr. The producers also considered Dudley Moore and Sam Kinison for the role, but Geffen suggested Keaton. Burton was unfamiliar with Keaton's work, but was quickly convinced.
The Pirates of the Caribbean star is reportedly dating lawyer Joelle Rich from his UK legal team that represented him in his libel lawsuits against British tabloid The Sun in 2020, per People. (His fans were shipping him with the wrong lawyer, apparently.)
In behind the scenes photos posted to Twitter by Mad Monster, new Beetlejuice 2 images show a chilling crypt, and a lone white church. The post also confirms that Beetlejuice 2 is currently filming in Buckinghamshire in the United Kingdom, and that the film's working title is "Blue Hawaii,...
Catherine O'Hara is returning as Delia Deetz in Beetlejuice 2, which is all the more exciting given the potential to integrate the campiness of her most iconic TV role.
Johnny Depp wasn't in the original Beetlejuice, and had Beetlejuice 2 arrived during the height of his partnership with Tim Burton — who is returning to direct — it's a safe bet he would have been cast. This isn't the case in 2023, so here's how much truth there is to the Johnny Depp Beetlejuice 2 rumors.

Winona Ryder , who has no kids herself, said she found it “strange” to quickly develop a strong maternal bond with her on-screen children Noah Scnapp and Charlie Heaton. Actor Winona Ryder says she feels like a mother to her young Stranger Things co-stars.
While she's had many successful and long relationships, Ryder has never been married and doesn't appear to want to take that step. “I'm a serial monogamist,” she said to The Edit. “I'd rather never have been married than been divorced a few times.
"Sophia has decided to exercise her contractual out to pursue television work." Presley Ryan is playing the role of Lydia through this weekend, and the production plans to announce a new Lydia next week. It's unusual for a star to exit a Broadway production with no advance warning.
We know that Beetlejuice used to work as the assistant to the caseworker Juno, which means he killed himself, since all undead civil servants committed suicide. Beetlejuice was Bozman, and he killed himself after his building was completed in 1835.
Presley recently starred as Lydia Deetz in the Broadway company of BEETLEJUICE the musical based on the 1988 Academy Award-winning film at the Winter Garden Theatre.
