    It's showtime! "Beetlejuice Beetlejuice," the sequel to Tim Burton's 1988 classic "Beetlejuice," opens in theaters across the country on Friday, Sept. 6, 2024. With this highly anticipated release, theaters are debuting specialty "Beetlejuice" inspired popcorn buckets available for purchase.

    Each participating theater chain will have its own Beetlejuice merch, including cups and other items, meaning you could collect them all.

    “Beetlejuice Beetlejuice” sees the return of Winona Ryder, Catherine O’Hara, and, of course, Michael Keaton in the titular role, with Jenna Ortega, Willem Dafoe, and Justin Theroux joining the cast.

    Here’s where you can buy the new “Beetlejuice Beetlejuice” popcorn buckets in theaters in Arizona.

    Where can I buy a Beetlejuice popcorn bucket?

    Movie theaters across the country — including AMC, Harkins, Regal and Cinemark in metro Phoenix — all plan to release "Beetlejuice Beetlejuice" popcorn buckets.

    Will AMC have a Beetlejuice popcorn bucket?

    Yes. AMC Theatres announced on its Instagram that it would be selling a popcorn bucket that appears to resemble "The Handbook for the Recently Deceased" from the original movie. From the looks of the Instagram post, it seems like AMC will also be selling a variety of "Beetlejuice" inspired cups.

    The popcorn bucket will be available starting Sept. 6.

    Will Cinemark have a Beetlejuice popcorn bucket?

    According to the Cinemark Facebook page , it will have a jack-in-the-box style light-up popcorn bucket that includes a figurine of Betelgeuse on the top.

    What is Beetlejuice Beetlejuice about?

    Set 36 years after the events of the first film, "Beetlejuice Beetlejuice" sees the Deetz family returning to Winter River after Charles' unexpected death.

    When Lydia's (Winona Ryder) rebellious teenage daughter Astrid (Jenna Ortega) discovers the mysterious model of the town in the attic, she accidentally opens the portal to the Afterlife, releasing Betelgeuse (Michael Keaton) once again.

    The sequel also stars Catherine O'Hara as Lydia's stepmother, Delia Deetz, and newcomers Justin Theroux, Monica Bellucci, and Willem Dafoe.
