Find out if Beetlejuice sequel lives up to 1988 classic

   September 6, 2024

You only have to say his name twice for him to appear again – “Beetlejuice Beetlejuice” hits theaters this weekend, one of the year’s most anticipated movies and the long-awaited sequel to Tim Burton’s 1988 classic. Michael Keaton, Winona Ryder, and Catherine O’Hara are back from the original cast, plus Jenna Ortega, Justin Theroux, and more are along for the ride. But does Burton deliver, or is this another painful revival? ABC News entertainment correspondent Jason Nathanson shares his thoughts.

New on streaming, a couple of shows with big-name casts; Netflix’s “The Perfect Couple” finds Nicole Kidman and Liev Schreiber as the heads of a wealthy Nantucket Island family, caught up in a murder mystery on the wedding weekend of their son.

Peacock’s “Fight Night: The Million Dollar Heist” features Kevin Hart, Samuel L. Jackson, Taraji P. Henson, Don Cheadle and more, in a true story tale having to do with Muhammed Ali’s boxing comeback.

Jason shares if either show is binge-worthy.
