Alec Balwin may not have returned for Beetlejuice Beetlejuice, but the sequel’s Shrinkers are a hilarious callback to a different Alec Baldwin classic. Many of the cast members from the original Beetlejuice returned for the long-awaited Tim Burton sequel, with Lydia, Delia, Betelgeuse, and more coming back for another afterlife adventure. However, the absence of the Maitlands has been a sticking point for some fans of the original, and while it is sad that they didn’t return, Alec Baldwin did manage to have an impact on Beetlejuice Beetlejuice‘s story in one strange way.
