The Deetz family saga continues as three generations return to Winter River in Beetlejuice Beetlejuice, a film that premiered on September 6, 2024, and brought back original stars Michael Keaton, Winona Ryder, and Catherine O’Hara. Adding to the Burton universe is Jenna Ortega, known for her role in Wednesday. The official synopsis teases a new chapter of ghostly chaos: Lydia Deetz is still haunted by Beetlejuice, and things get turned upside down when her teenage daughter, Astrid, stumbles upon a model of Winter River in the attic, accidentally opening a portal to the Afterlife. With trouble brewing in both the living and the spirit realms, it’s only a matter of time before someone utters “Beetlejuice” three times, unleashing the chaotic demon once more.

When Will Beetlejuice Beetlejuice Stream on Max?
For subscribers of Max, the wait for Beetlejuice Beetlejuice to arrive on the streaming platform continues. While Max hasn’t officially announced a release date yet, typical Warner Bros. releases offer a clue. Studios generally wait around 60 to 90 days after a theatrical premiere before making films available on their streaming services. Warner Bros. has recently tended towards the longer end of this window. Based on these patterns, Beetlejuice Beetlejuice could potentially premiere on Max as early as November 2024.
Looking at past Warner Bros. releases can give us an estimate. Godzilla X Kong, for instance, premiered in theaters on March 29, 2024, and became available on Max after 97 days, on July 4, 2024. Dune: Part 2 had a shorter 81-day gap, and Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga arrived on Max 84 days after its theatrical launch. These examples suggest that fans may not have to wait too long to stream Beetlejuice Beetlejuice on Max.
