Michael Keaton: Kuka se Beetlejuice oikein on?

Tiesitkö, että Michael Keaton aikoo palata oikeaan nimeensä Michael Douglasiin? Lue lisää tähden kiehtovasta urasta ja nimimuutoksista!

Michael Keaton, tuo legendaarinen näyttelijä, joka tunnetaan rooleistaan Beetlejuicen, Batmanin ja Birdmanin kaltaisissa elokuvissa, on päättänyt tehdä yllättävän muutoksen. Hän suunnittelee palaavansa alkuperäiseen nimeensä, Michael Douglasiin, tehden näin sen, mikä on monelle meistä vain unelma — palata omaksi itsekseen. Monet eivät ehkä tiedä, että vuonna 1970, jolloin Keaton aloitti uransa, Screen Actors Guildin säännöt estivät häntä käyttämästä nimeään, sillä toinen näyttelijä, Wall Streetin tähden Michael Douglas, oli jo olemassa. Keatonin oli siis otettava uusi nimimerkki uransa alussa, joka on jäänyt elämään kaikille ikonista näyttelijää rakastaville faneille.

Eikä Keaton ole ainoa! Monet muutkin kuuluisuudet, kuten Gigi Hadid, Tina Fey ja Tom Cruise, ovat vaihtaneet oikean nimensä taiteilijanimeksi. Miksi tämä on näin yleistä? Kenties se on osa tähtikulttuurin viehätystä, jossa jokainen nimeää itsensä samalla tavalla kuin supertähden — ainutlaatuisella ja muistettavalla tavalla. Keaton on kuitenkin nyt ainutlaatuinen omalla tavallaan, sillä hän aikoo palata juurilleen ja käyttää nimeä, jonka hän aikanaan hylkäsi.

Kun Keaton puhuu paluustaan Beetlejuicen rooliin ja muistelee ikimuistoisia kohtauksiaan, hän ei voi olla miettimättä, miten runollista on palata juurilleen myös nimensä kautta. Hänen roolinsa Beetlejuicena on ollut yksi hänen parhaista, ja kokemus on saanut hänet tuntemaan, että on aika hyväksyä sekä hänen näyttelijänimensä että alkuperäinen nimensä. Tim Burtonin mukaan Keatonin paluu Beetlejuicena oli kuin katselisi vanhaa Vegas-esitystä — nostalgiaa ja huumoria täynnä, aivan kuten alkuperäinen elokuvakin.

Tämä päätös nostaa kysymyksen: voiko taiteilijanimi todella muuttaa sitä, miten katsojat näkevät tähtiä? Keatonin tekemä muutos voi olla pelkästään nimellinen, mutta se voi herättää syvempää ajattelua siitä, kuka hän todella on näyttelijänä ja ihmisenä. Sekä julkaisut uutisointiin että henkilökohtainen paluu juurilleen antaa toivoa, että voimme kaikki olla ylpeitä siitä, keitä olemme.

Loppujen lopuksi Michael Keatonin paluu oikeaan nimeensä on enemmän kuin pelkkä muutos: se on vaarallista ja rohkeaa. Tiesitkö, että Keaton on ollut valtavan menestyksellinen urallaan, mutta häntä on usein pidetty myös haastavana näyttelijänä, joka tietää tarkalleen mitä haluaa? Jännittävää on myös katsoa, miltä näyttely tulevaisuudessa näyttää, kun sekä hänen tunnettu nimensä että hänen aito nimensä yhdistyvät. Kuka tietää, ehkä Beetlejuice tekee paluun uudessa näyttelyklassikossa, ja nyt se on täysin Michaelin omissa käsissä!
