Recently, Jenna Ortega opened up about her new role in Beetlejuice Beetlejuice and shared more about the upcoming sequel.
Jenna said, “I don’t know how much I’m allowed to say, but I am Lydia Deetz’s daughter, so I’ll give that away. She’s weird, but in a different way and not in the way you’d assume, I would say.”
She continued, “The relationship between Lydia and Astrid, my character, is very important. And it’s also really strange because it’s a lot of catching up and putting the pieces together of what’s gone on in Lydia’s life since, which is nice, I think, for anybody who loves the character and is excited to see her again.” She added, “She doesn’t go to the opposite end of the spectrum, but any kid who becomes a teenager wants to be removed from their parents. I think they instantly just fight whatever it is that their parent loves. So I think it’s a little bit of that. I’m not wearing pink and am a cheerleader, but I am a little bit against my mom’s history or past. We butt heads quite a bit.”
Beetlejuice Beetlejuice will be out on September 6th.
