Last year Brian once again joined Neal Scanlan’s team to work on Beetlejuice Beetlejuice!
The sequel to Tim Burton’s 1988 cult classic, saw the director and many of the original cast return for another ride with the ‘Ghost with the most!” Burton has always been a practical filmmaker and this was his third collaboration with Neal Scanlan (Sweeny Todd & Charlie and the Chocolate Factory).
Leaning heavily into practical effects and puppetry Burton once again took the audience to the afterlife to meet a host of ghoulish characters. Brian alongside many regular Scanlan performers helped to bring to ‘life’ The Shrinkers, many characters from the waiting room, the deadly piranha fish, exploding Beetlejuice guts and most notably, the nightmare baby!

It took between four to six performers to get the little fella to rampage around and Brian loved every minute of it. He also performed various shrinker characters for the promotional campaign for the move. Most notably Shrinker Steve (played by suit performer Paul Warren). To see the ad click HERE
