Winona Ryder has recently spilled the tea about her secret meeting with director Tim Burton for Beetlejuice sequel.

Speaking with Harper’s Bazaar, Winona said, “There were a lot of times my agents didn’t know that I was meeting up with him.”

“In the intervening decades, though, Winona and Tim kept in touch, meeting secretly to discuss making a second ‘Beetlejuice,’” remarked the Edward Scissorheads actress.

Tim told the outlet, “There’d been talk about it, but I never really understood why it was popular. And this was when people didn’t talk about sequels.”

Reflecting on working with Winona, Tim mentioned, “When I met Winona, she reminded me of how I felt as a teenager. And she’s got what I love with certain actors.”

“She can say something with just her eyes. … There’s a soul coming out. So, without dialogue, without anything, there’s something there. It’s why you make movies,” he stated.

Michael Keaton, who worked in original Beetlejuice movie, spoke to the outlet, “Tim’s a terrific caster.”

“He doesn’t always get credit for that, but if you look through his films, he always casts really, really well, and that includes Winona,” added the actor.

Jenna Ortega praised Winona in the sequel, explaining, “She definitely helped me feel less alone.”

“It’s a very isolating experience and a scary one. Being able to speak to somebody who had witnessed that firsthand, maybe even more, was a great source of comfort for me, and I can’t thank her enough for that,” stated the Wednesday star.
