Before the sequel dropped, Jones’ representative confirmed to The Hollywood Reporter that the 77-year-old actor does not appear in Beetlejuice Beetlejuice.
He followed his Beetlejuice stint with performances in other Tim Burton classics, including 1994’s Ed Wood and 1999’s Sleepy Hollow.
Jones is known for playing Emperor Joseph II in 1984’s Amadeus and Ed Rooney, the principal in 1986’s Ferris Bueller’s Day Off.
But Jones has been largely out of work since his 2003 arrest.
