Gough – who created Wednesday with his long-time collaborator Millar – said they would generally meet with Burton every morning and he would generally leave the set at the end of the day’s filming.

“Then one day we got a message from his assistant saying he wanted to meet us, and of course as writers we thought something was wrong,” Gough said with a laugh. “(When we met with Tim) he said it was the film everyone on the street asked him about the most Beetlejuice and whether there would ever be a sequel. I think at that point he said, ‘If I don’t do it now, I never will.'”
