The 62-year-old actor said he e-mailed Tim Burton and talked to the writer of the film about 'Beetlejuice 2', reported MTV News.
"I've e-mailed Tim a couple of times, talked to the writer a couple of times, but all really, really preliminary stuff," Keaton said.
"I always said that's the one thing I'd like to do again, if I ever did anything again," he added.
Keaton who played a striped-suit-wearing ghost in the movie said that if Burton will be a part of the project then, it would be difficult for him not to be in.
"And without giving too much away we've talked to each other, and e-mailed each other, and if he's in, it's going to be hard not to be in," Keaton said.
Winona Ryder too has discussed the possibility of reprising the role of Lydia Deetz in the sequel.
Seth Grahame-Smith, who wrote 'Dark Shadows' for Burton, is signed on to write the script.
