Beetlejuice Beetlejuice Already Posting Insane Box Office, Could Knock A Stephen King Classic Out Of The Record Books

As a gamer who has spent countless hours immersed in the world of movies, I can confidently say that the anticipation for “Beetlejuice Beetlejuice” has been like waiting for the perfect high score on an iconic game – elusive yet exhilarating. The preview numbers have shattered expectations and left me with a sense of triumphant satisfaction that rivals my victories in Fortnite battles.


For quite some time now, fans have eagerly anticipated a follow-up to the movie “Beetlejuice”. Now, they’re not just talking about it – they’re showing their excitement with their wallets! The pre-release screenings for “Beetlejuice Beetlejuice” have generated an impressive $12 million in domestic box office revenue before its official debut on Friday.

This September sneak peek performance is among the highest ever recorded, setting up the sequel to potentially surpass box office records. If it manages to do so, the horror-comedy would outshine one of the most successful horror movies in recent times, dethroning both parts of IT, based on Stephen King‘s novel.

Beetlejuice Beetlejuice Could Have The Best September Opening Weekend Ever

If the weekend’s box office performance continues in line with typical patterns, then Beetlejuice Beetlejuice could challenge for the record of the most successful September opening ever. Currently, that title is held by IT: Chapter One and the runner-up spot is occupied by its sequel. At this stage, the preview earnings for Beetlejuice 2 are slightly lower than IT: Chapter One’s $13.5 million, but higher than Part Two’s figures.

Initially, “Beetlejuice Beetlejuice” seemed set to rank second in September openings of all time based on early estimates. However, Deadline predicts that the box office earnings might even improve further. This optimism stems from the diverse demographic likely to watch the movie, which is broader than that for a typical Stephen King horror story. Consequently, there’s a strong possibility that “Beetlejuice” could outperform “Pennywise” in terms of box office success.

Regardless of whether the upcoming Beetlejuice movie underperforms compared to records, it’s expected to perform strongly at the box office. The film IT: Chapter One managed nearly $125 million in 2017. If the September 2024 release of the new Beetlejuice movie manages over $100 million during its opening weekend, it will be considered an extraordinary success – a feat that seems quite possible at this stage.

Beetlejuice 2 Has Been A Long Awaited Sequel And Fans Are Showing Up

The reception towards “Beetlejuice Beetlejuice” by critics has been robust, matching its success at the box office. Although it’s not receiving a barrage of exceptional accolades, it’s garnering a resiliently favorable response. Our review for “Beetlejuice Beetlejuice” describes the film as both “hilarious” and “touching.” This is probably the kind of experience that fans eagerly awaiting the sequel are hoping for.

The initial success of the film “Beetlejuice” sparked discussions about a sequel almost instantaneously, unfortunately, the original concept didn’t materialize as planned. For years, whispers of a possible “Beetlejuice” sequel persisted until finally, it became a reality.

As a die-hard fan, I can’t help but feel a thrill when I see the massive box office success of movies like Beetlejuice 3. It’s hard not to wonder if Tim Burton might reconsider his distance from such an enticing prospect. After all, numbers like these are exactly the sort that can make a movie studio sit up and take notice!
