Apart from stating this, Al Gough emphasized that when Tim Burton feels passion for something, it’s not just a casual interest – he immerses himself entirely, and this fervor is likely why the sequel to Beetlejuice has been such a massive hit at the box office.

He had no other motive but a desire to create that particular film, as well as a wish to share that specific tale,” Gough stated.

In the continuation of the interview, the co-creator provided insights into the progress of the upcoming season featuring the talented cast of Wednesday. He disclosed that the production of the next season has already advanced to halfway completion. Additionally, he mentioned that the director known for Edward Scissorhands is still actively involved in his role.

Examining the current situation, it’s evident that numerous opportunities exist for various events to unfold within the series this season.

The upcoming season promises to be packed with additional excitement and a hint of terror. Notably, it will depart from the romantic aspect that characterized its initial season.
