Four-time Oscar-winning costume designer Colleen Atwood will reunite with Tim Burton for Beetlejuice 2. Atwood confirmed the news toVariety in an interview on Friday.

Atwood is currently in London at work on the film, which is set to arrive in movie theaters next year. The costume designer said she had just finished her first week of production.

As previously announced, Michael Keatonwill be back as Beetlejuice, andWinona Ryderis reprising her role as Lydia Deetz. Additional cast members include Wednesday starJenna Ortegaas the daughter of Ryders character, as well as Justin Theroux in a yet-to-be-revealed role.

Little else is known about the sequel to the 1988 film, which follows a recently deceased married couple (played by Geena Davis and Alec Baldwin) who is irked by the new family (Catherine OHara and Jeffrey Jones play the parents, while Ryder portrays their teenage daughter) that has moved into their home. Naturally, they summon Beetlejuice, a devious ghost from the Netherworld, who promises to help them haunt the houses new inhabitants.

While Aggie Guerard Rodgers Burton designed the famous looks from the first film, Burton has recruited Atwood for the new film. The two have worked together for three decades on projects including Mars Attack, Edward Scissorhands, Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street, Burtons 2010 live-action Alice in Wonderland and Dumbo.

Most recently, she worked with Burton on the Netflix series Wednesday, where she nailed the iconic, creepy look of Ortegas Wednesday Addams and her kooky family, with a nod to the characters original pointed collar.
