The Original Cast Of 'Beetlejuice' Through The Years

Beetlejuice is a 1988 American fantasy-comedy-horror film that gained mass fame. It starred the likes of Michael Keaton, Alec Baldwin, Geena Davis, Winona Ryder and Catherine O'Hara.

Keaton played the role of "Betelgeuse". The character is a very rude and perverted ghost. He is also very crazy and seems unpleasant on screen. He constantly invades people's personal space (even to the point of sexual harassment).

Since his role in 'Beetlejuice', Keaton has starred in countless big films such as 'Dumbo' (2019), 'Spiderman: Homecoming' (2017), 'The Founder' (2016), 'Minions' (2015), 'Birdman' (2014), 'Cars' (2006) and 'Batman Returns' (1992). Keaton currently lives in Big Timber, Montana and has one son. Recently he has appeared in television shows such as 'Saturday Night Live'.

Alec Baldwin played the role of "Adam Maitland," a polite guy who wants to get along with everyone and be in peace. He was a quiet man and his hobby was making sculptures before he and his wife "Barbara" died in a car accident after a trip into town to get supplies for projects. He and his wife then find that they have become ghosts.

Alec Baldwin has hosted 'Saturday Night Live' a record 17 times. He has also voiced many characters in big movie roles, such as 'The SpongeBob Squarepants' Movie (2004), 'Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa' (2008) 'Rise of the Guardians' (2011) and 'The Boss Baby' (2017). From 2006 to 2013, Baldwin played "Jack Donaghy" on the NBC sitcom '30 Rock', winning two Emmy Awards, three Golden Globe Awards, and seven Screen Actors Guild Awards for his role.

"Barbara Maitland" is the wife of "Adam Maitland" and a ghost who haunts the home of the "Deetzes".

Since the film, Geena Davis has starred in numerous films and television shows such as the 'Stuart Little' films, 'She-Ra' and the 'Princesses of Power' (2019), 'Grey's Anatomy' (2018), and 'The Geena Davis Show (2000-2001). However, the actress has commented on her lack of roles since her 30s and has not been seen in as many films and shows as she used to.

Catherine O'Hara played the role of "Delia Deetz". "Delia" is portrayed as a highly emotional, overly dramatic person. During the film "Beetlejuice" brings "Delia's" sculptures to life and they imprison her and her husband. They helplessly watch in horror as 'Beetlejuice' tries to force "Lydia" to marry him, and she is grateful to the "Maitlands" when they rescue her whilst banishing "Beetlejuice".

Catherine O'Hara started her acting career in the mid-'70s, but later moved on to writing scripts in the mid-'80s and even received an Emmy for one of them in 1982. She returned to acting after a short while, starring in Emmy nominated movies such as 'Heartburn' and 'Best of Show'. She is still going strong, playing roles in feature films such as Where the Wild Things Are and Kiss & Kill.O'Hara won an Emmy for her role as "Moira Rose" in 'Schitt's Creek' in 2020. Interestingly enough, she was also a musician, working with the band Northern Lights for a short period of time. She has been working as a product designer since 1992 and is currently married to Bo Welch, with whom she has two sons.

Winona Ryder played the role of "Lydia Deetz," the daughter of "Charles Deetz" and the stepdaughter of "Delia Deetz". She is mostly referred to as a goth girl. "Beetlejuice" wants to marry her so he can return to the world of the living.
