Michael Keaton is back as the ghost with the most in first trailer for Tim Burton's Beetlejuice 2

The first trailer for Tim Burton's long-awaited Beetlejuice 2 has arrived – and "ready" is an understatement.

The brief clip, which can be viewed above, gives us our first look at Jenna Ortega as Lydia's daughter Astrid. But perhaps the most exciting thing (at least for us Burton goths) is seeing Winona Ryder's reprisal of Lydia Deetz, Catherine O'Hara as Delia Deetz, and, of course, Michael Keaton's return as the ghost with the most.

In the Beetlejuice 2 teaser trailer, we see the Deetz gals attending a funeral. This cuts to Astrid entering that fateful attic and unveiling the model of the town built long ago by the Maitlands. Lydia comes running, but it's too late – Astrid has already summoned Beetlejuice, who simply says, "The juice is loose."

The sequel's official title is Beetlejuice Beetlejuice, which is a direct reference to the Blood Mary-esque way that the 'bio-exorcist' is summoned. Tim Burton directs from a script penned by Wednesday showrunners Alfred Gough and Miles Millar.
