Michael Keaton on almost refusing to ‘Beetlejuice’ 

Michael Keaton recalls almost making the biggest pass in his life saying no to Beetlejuice, but luckily the actor changed his mind.

“I used to be known as ‘Dr. No’ because I’ve turned down a lot of roles. Not out of arrogance, just for whatever reason,” Keaton told People in the magazine’s latest cover story.

He shed light on how he almost said no to Tim Burton too.

“Somebody said, ‘Do you want to meet this guy? He made this movie, Pee-wee’s Big Adventure, and stuff,’ ” Keaton recalled. “And I’d seen a little bit. I didn’t ever even watch the whole movie, I don’t think. And I said, ‘Sure.’ ”

“I just didn’t know what he was talking about,” the star said of the director who came to him with Beetlejuice.

“I’m not being sarcastic,” he continues. “I didn’t understand what he was talking about. So I’d say, ‘Wait a minute, but who is he? What is it?’ ”

As Keaton remembers, the briefing went “pleasant”, he agreed for another, despite him being nervous of the role.

“I just said, ‘I don’t know what it is, and he’d probably be better off getting someone else because I don’t get it.’ Not like, ‘I don’t get it. I thought it was bad.’ I literally didn’t know what it was,” Keaton told the outlet.

But then, the actor had a gut feeling about Burton.

“My gut said, ‘This guy is something. For sure, something.’ Plus, I just liked him. I liked him as a person. I got along with him, and he seemed like my kind of eccentric artist.”

‘Wolfs’ creator on what differs It from Brad Pitt, George Clooney’s ‘Oceans’

Published

Jon Watts revealed how he differentiated Brad Pitt and George Clooney’s roles in Wolfs from their characters in the Ocean’s franchise.

In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, the Wolfs creator shared that he wasn’t focused on this distinction because he aimed to create something that didn’t feel like the Ocean’s crew reuniting.

“Well, they’re friends in the Oceans movies, this was immediately the opposite of that,” he explained, highlighting the key difference. “They hate each other, which immediately sets a different tone and gives them something fun to play with.”

He added that their real-life friendship creates a tension for the audience: “You just want them to be friends.”

“You’re like, can’t you see they’re perfect for each other? [Laughs] It frustrates people in a good way,” Watts, 43, noted. “It’s the opposite of an odd-couple pairing because they’re the same guy; it’s not two different characters. It takes half the movie to realise that.”

George, 63, and Brad, 60, first teamed up as Danny Ocean and Rusty Ryan in Steven Soderbergh’s 2001 heist film Ocean’s Eleven.

The duo reprised their roles in Ocean’s Twelve (2004) and Ocean’s Thirteen (2007) before reuniting for Wolfs after 16 years.
