Geena Davis already had some movie roles under her belt by the time she portrayed Barbara Maitland in 1988, but her career kept on going strong afterward — in fact, she won an Oscar in the same year for her role in "The Accidental Tourist." Davis is no stranger to playing badass women characters, such as in "Thelma and Louise," "A League of Their Own," and "Commander in Chief," to name a few of her projects. She also played Angela Rance in the first season of "The Exorcist" in 2016 and has since appeared in projects like "Grey's Anatomy" and "GLOW."
It's not looking like Davis will return for the "Beetlejuice" sequel, though, as her name hasn't appeared in any reports about the movie's cast. Unless "Beetlejuice 2" takes place in the Maitlands's former home once again, it wouldn't make much sense for her character to return, which is probably the reason behind her likely absence.
