Gil Kenan, who co-wrote “Ghostbusters: Afterlife,” takes control of as director for the brand-new movie from Jason Reitman who helmed the previous one.
In the movie, the Spengler household go back to where all of it began– the New York City firehouse– to partner with the initial Ghostbusters, who’ve established a top-secret research study laboratory. An ancient artifact threatens to turn the world into a 2nd Ice Age.
Speaking to Empire to sneak peek the brand-new movie, director Gil Kenan states the objective of the brand-new movie is construct something brand-new within this recognized universe:
“Because the Spengler household story drove the story in Afterlife, bringing Gozer back to spotlight was a natural method to close the book on the past.
We are now in the post-Gozerian period of the Ghostbusters legend, so that suggests we’re able to extend out and produce a completely brand-new folklore. Which’s thrilling as a writer since there are brand new and frightening stakes with fresh visual referrals to make use of.”
