The new trailer offers glimpses of high-stakes action–car chases, tense standoffs, and DiCaprio's understated yet intense performance. The trailer starts with the Oscar-winning actor saying: 'What I am doing here is I am creating a close circuit.' He adds, 'Very important to keep your cap shunted like this so you don't accidentally detonate your charge.' Teyana takes over as she says, 'Don't stop, I want you to create a show. This is the announcement of the revolution.' The trailer then reveals the other characters. The trailer shifts to Leonardo DiCaprio having a conversation with his daughter played by Chase Infiniti. He says, 'You have to understand, Willa. Me and mom, we used to run around and do some real bad…' He then says, 'They got her. Now they are coming after us. I am sorry.' After a couple of humourous scenes, DiCaprio is again heard saying, 'I wanted to protect you from all your mom's stuff, from all my stuff, even though I know that's impossible.'

Beetlejuice 3 director wonders if he's been ‘replaced' after development update
Legendary Hollywood director Tim Burton is questioning if he's been replaced after 'nobody told him' about plans for Beetlejuice 3. The 66-year-old filmmaker, who directed the original 1988 comedy horror classic and its 2024 sequel Beetlejuice Beetlejuice, has played down speculation that a third movie is definitely on the cards. Nostalgia for the original combined with the return of Michael Keaton as the titular self-proclaimed 'Ghost with the Most' and a starry supporting cast helped propel the sequel to $451,100,000 at the box office. Earlier this year, Warner Bros Pictures co-chairman/CEO Mike De Luca had insisted development on Beetlejuice 3 was 'imminent'. Upon hearing this, Burton told The Hollywood Reporter: 'Really? Nobody told me. Maybe I've been replaced.' Jenna Ortega, who appeared in the second film last year, quipped: 'Maybe I've been, too. Maybe [her character] Astrid dies and goes to heaven instead [of the films' Netherworld]. To view this video please enable JavaScript, and consider upgrading to a web browser that supports HTML5 video 'They should just take Baby Beetlejuice on tour and send him to Hawaii.' Burton pointed out that more than three decades passed between the first two films in the franchise, joking that 'the odds are not good' for a follow-up any time soon because he'd be 105 by then. The filmmaker added: 'I really, really enjoyed making this one, and [Warner Bros] didn't even really want to do it. 'We did it the same way I did the first one, with the actors doing improv. It was beautiful to see some of the old cast and have Jenna. But it's like trying to re-create the Wednesday dance scene. I love the characters, but I don't necessarily see it.' Burton also seemed to suggest he'd be unwilling to allow another director to step in and do it instead, as he feels 'very proprietary about everything I do, even if I don't own the characters'. He admitted too that 'when they did the [Beetlejuice Broadway musical], I got p****d'. Meanwhile, Ortega noted she would 'never' want to return to the Beetlejuice world without Burton steering the ship as it would be 'really wrong to get behind that project'. 'Without him involved, what is it? It is what it is because of Tim. There's no other film you can compare Beetlejuice to. So why would you do that? That would be a tad disrespectful.' The 22-year-old played the daughter of Winona Ryder's Lydia Deetz in Beetlejuice Beetlejuice, who is initially unwilling to entertain her mother's psychic abilities as someone still haunted by Beetlejuice. After a family tragedy, three generations of the family return home to Winter River. But Astrid turns their lives upside down when she accidentally opens the portal to the Afterlife. She has also collaborated with Burton on Netflix series Wednesday, where she plays the lead role, and which returns for season two next month. It's a project Burton previously revealed 're-energised' him after he became disillusioned with the movie industry. Back in April, Warner Bros executive De Luca had claimed plans were moving along for sequels for both Minecraft and Beetlejuice Beetlejuice. He told Deadline: 'Imminently. The ink might not be dry on the deals yet, but imminently.' De Luca insisted the studio was looking to capitalise on both film's success. More Trending He explained: 'To have two franchises emerge from our leadership team with Beetlejuice Beetlejuice and Minecraft, I feel like we're ahead of schedule. 'Now we're trying to step on the gas, to double, to quadruple that kind of success.' Metro contacted has Warner Bros for comment. Got a story?

Tim Burton addresses Beetlejuice 3 reports
Tim Burton has insisted "nobody told him" about plans for Beetlejuice 3. The 66-year-old filmmaker - who directed the original 1988 comedy horror classic and its 2024 sequel Beetlejuice Beetlejuice - has played down speculation that a third movie is definitely on the cards.

Maybe [her character] Astrid dies and goes to heaven instead [of the films' Netherworld]. "They should just take Baby Beetlejuice on tour and send him to Hawaii." Burton pointed out that there was well over three decades between the first two films in the franchise - which stars Michael Keaton as the wisecracking ghoul - and joked "the odds are not good" for a follow-up any time soon. He said: "It took 35 years to make the second one, so by that time I'll be 105. I know those odds are not good. "I really, really enjoyed making this one, and [Warner Bros.] didn't even really want to do it. "We did it the same way I did the first one, with the actors doing improv.
