PITTSBURGH (KDKA) -- After years of speculation, the ghost with the most is officially coming back to the big screen for a Beetlejuice sequel.

Warner Bros. says that director Tim Burton and stars Winona Ryder and Michael Keaton are returning for "Beetlejuice 2."

Jenna Ortega from "Wednesday" and "Scream 6" will be introduced as the daughter of Ryder's character.

It's unclear if production will be impacted by the ongoing writer's strike. 

Right now, plans are for the film to be released in theaters in September 2024.
