Jenna Ortega's Comments On Playing Winona Ryder's Character In Beetlejuice Sequel
In conversation with an entertainment portal, the Wednesday star revealed, "It's really strange because it's a lot of catching up and putting the pieces together of what's gone on in Lydia's life since, which is nice, I think, for anybody who loves the character and is excited to see her again."
