Sophia Anne Caruso and Beetlejuice cast
I find it really strange that people *still* spread rumors about behind-the-scenes drama surrounding Sophia Anne Caruso's departure from Beetlejuice. The most common one that I keep seeing everywhere is "Sophia told producers that it was either her or Alex and they chose Alex". Meanwhile, in this interview that came out *after* Sophia left the show Alex talks about his friendship with Sophia: https://youtu.be/bYU6WewVnTE?feature=shared&t=1583s
Additionally, here's a more recent interview with Sophia Anne Caruso, where she gives a quick shout-out to Alex Brightman, Leslie Kritzer and Dana Steingold: https://youtu.be/cSks_1ThAqg?si=L_CMGTDvdN1j0q1D&t=1247s
Also, there's this: https://youtu.be/ZbseT4KJS2E?si=I22FQQYMOpODGIGr . This was also after she left the show.
Sophia, Dana and Presley Ryan reunited to give a live class: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1aQgS4ELdhd86GUvJx2dDKIxABq5JR4Pb/view . Also, during the class Sophia said "I left to go do TV, and then TV got cancelled because of COVID. And I was like "woo, let's see what happens"" ( https://youtu.be/J6UBamFxGqw?si=4OS8NhZstnVPdTsr&t=57s )
Now, this doesn't necessarily confirm that there was absolutely NO drama behind Sophia leaving Beetlejuice, but the rumors about Sophia and Alex having a fight are definitely bs, and there's no hard feelings between her and most of the cast. Given that, I personally assume that most of the other rumors are false as well.
