Beetlejuice Beetlejuice Interview: Monica Bellucci’s Soul-Sucking Demon

For all the nostalgia Tim Burton’s long-awaited sequel brings — the OG trio, Michael Keaton, Winona Ryder, and Catherine O’Hara, returning to his unmistakable world — Beetlejuice Beetlejuice also introduces audiences to new creatures, the living and the dead. In addition to Wednesday’s Jenna Ortega, Justin Theroux, and Willem Dafoe, we also meet Delores, played by Monica Bellucci in a “key role“ Burton knew would be perfect for the actress. According to Bellucci, Delores isn’t one to be reckoned with, but, of course, that isn’t going to stop Beetlejuice (Keaton). She’s “Beetlejuice’s bride,“ and you know what they say about a woman scorned. As the Deetz family returns to their old house following a tragedy and deals with an open portal to the Afterlife, Beetlejuice is haunted by this “soul-sucking demon“ from his past. Before the sequel hits theaters, check out Bellucci’s interview with Collider’s Perri Nemiroff, where they dig into who Delores is, her powers, and why she’s hellbent on vengeance. Bellucci also shares why she was thrilled to join Burton’s whimsical world, the importance of body language in the film, and filming her “horror dancing scene.“ You can watch the full conversation in the video above, or you can read the transcript below. #beetlejuice #beetlejuicebeetlejuice #monicabelluci #interview #timburton For interviews, movie reviews, and more visit FOLLOW US ON SOCIAL
