As a gamer with a soft spot for pop culture and fashion, I must say that Jenna Ortega’s method dressing for the Beetlejuice Beetlejuice promotions has left me utterly spellbound! Growing up on 80s and 90s movies, Beetlejuice was always a favorite, and to see it brought back to life with such style and panache is truly a dream come true.
The art of method acting has been gaining popularity lately. From Margot Robbie in her Barbie-inspired style to Zendaya’s various fashion choices, such as her green tennis dress for ‘Challengers’, we’ve seen it executed brilliantly in numerous ways. However, Jenna Ortega’s fashion choices to promote her new movie ‘Beetlejuice Beetlejuice’ have been my personal favorite. For the final look on the press tour for the legacy sequel, the actress playing Wednesday decided to push method dressing to a daring new extreme by embodying Bob from her upcoming 2024 film.
In a fresh take, the revamped cast of “Beetlejuice Beetlejuice” comprises various quirky poltergeists hailing from Neitherworld. Among them are Beetlejuice’s former spouse Delores and the afterlife enforcer Wolf Jackson. Although Jenna Ortega could convincingly portray any of these characters, her decision on costume was influenced by poltergeist Bob. Her stylist, Enrique Melendez, shared pictures of her vibrant yellow ensemble and its inspiration on Instagram, and you can check it out below.

Jenna Ortega made quite an impression with her “Bob-inspired” ensemble at the event – she donned a striking three-piece yellow capri suit by Alexandra Arnold, paired with fashionable yellow heels from Le Silla to complete the look. To top it off, she styled her hair in a high bun, exuding an air of professionalism that’s reminiscent of the Scream actress.
As a gamer, I’ve got to say, her style in that new movie is an awesome, modern spin on Bob’s outfit, making it stand out. Now, Ortega isn’t usually into vibrant shades, but this was the perfect moment to rock that bright yellow, as it matched the character perfectly. Check out the picture of the ghost below and see how she nailed the character’s vibe!
It’s spot on, isn’t it? Truly, the actress has become a true fashion icon, and the outfits she’s donned while promoting Beetlejuice Beetlejuice further solidified that point.
Every approach to dressing up seems to shout, “The curtain is rising!” For instance, during the promotional phase, Jenna Ortega evoked memories of the original Beetlejuice character Lydia by wearing a school uniform reminiscent of the one she wore at the end of the first film.
Afterward, she once more embodied her on-screen mother character by donning a striking two-piece Dior outfit reminiscent of Lydia’s famous red wedding dress, which she wore at the Venice premiere of Beetlejuice Beetlejuice.
By the way, let’s not overlook Ortega’s eerie photoshoot featuring her in a lengthy gown adorned with floral patterns, lush greenery, and fluttering butterflies reminiscent of Geena Davis’ character Barbara from Beetlejuice.
Additionally, it’s worth noting that these examples merely scrape the surface; she’s donned many more outfits. In essence, each ensemble she chose for her appearance wasn’t just a fashion statement, but also a clever blend of promoting her latest movie and honoring the iconic 1988 film we’re all fond of.
I must admit, I never imagined donning a costume reminiscent of the “Beetlejuice” character Bob would be so stylish. Yet, Jenna Ortega manages to elevate the yellow suit to unprecedented heights, creating an outstanding representation of Tim Burton’s latest creation.
Now, let’s take a peek at the characters that have influenced Ortega’s appearance on the silver screen, as the highly anticipated sequel to Beetlejuice is now showing in cinemas.
