When Tim Burton asked to speak to “Wednesday” writers Al Gough and Miles Millar after a long day of filming in Romania, the duo assumed they were in deep trouble.
“After packing, he would usually sit in his car and be gone,” Gough recalls. “So at first we thought something was wrong: ‘Oh shit, what happened?’”
It turned out that Burton wanted to pitch them a fairly large project: the sequel to his beloved 1988 supernatural fantasy film, “Beetlejuice.” Gough and Millar immediately agreed and went to work with Burton to further develop the story.
