sequel

"I think I can confirm it," Winona Ryder said about a sequel to Beetlejuice on Late Night with Seth Myers Aug. 10.

While rumors have swirled around the 27-year-old film getting a sequel for a while, it wasn't until Ryder apprehensively said those words that we've known it to be true.

She thought she could confirm it because, according to her, director of the first film Tim Burton had done so in an interview. However, a quick search only found Burton making the safe statement that the film is "closer than ever" last December.

There's no word yet if star Michael Keaton will reprise his classic role as the 'Ghost with the Most'. However, if a sequel comes together with him involved it will mark an extension of this interesting turn for him. Just last year, his dark and dreamy vehicle Birdman captured the Best Picture Academy Award and many thought Keaton deserved the Best Actor Award for which he was nominated.

If it does happen, it might even mean Burton can spring out of this 15-year slump he's spent holding hands with Johnny Depp, pulling each other down into the pits of mediocrity.

Here's the whole of the Seth Myers interview for you:

The Tracking Board reports that Tina Fey and her company, Little Stranger, will be producing the project.

The sequel will pick up years after the original, focusing on a housewife who is related to the Sanderson sisters, who teams up with a witch hunter to save her children after they run afoul of some resurrected witches while out trick-or-treating. No actors from the original film have been confirmed as returning for the sequel. In fact, no actors are yet attached to the project.

After 21 years the sequel is well on it's way to becoming a reality.

A followup film has been in the works since 2001 when Bonnie Hunt was chosen to write the script. But after many rewrites, David Berenbaum, writer of "Elf," has taken on the task.

Few details have yet to be released but according to Elite Daily Robin Williams and director Chris Columbus are on board!

Goonies director, Richard Donner, reveals that there will be a sequel to the 1980s adventure classic!

Goonies never say die, and apparently neither does the possibility of a follow-up film 30 years later. How do you feel about this? Should Chester Copperpot's search for One-Eyed Willie's treasure have ended with Mikey and the gang, or is there more mystery for an new generation kids from the goon docks?

I'm sure you thought not many things could be as painful as getting bit by a great white...you'll feel differently about watching this footage captured by TMZ on set of Sharknado 2 in the streets of New York. Get ready for some cringing laughter.
