Ghostbusters: Afterlife Poster

17 November 2021

The official poster for "Ghostbusters: Afterlife" has been revealed and shows the retro Ectomobile. Directed by Jason Reitman, who co-wrote the screenplay with Gil Kenan., the film stars Carrie Coon, Finn Wolfhard, Mckenna Grace, Paul Rudd, Logan Kim and Celeste O'Connor, while Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd, Ernie Hudson, Annie Potts, and Sigourney Weaver reprise their roles from the original films. It is the sequel to the 1984 "Ghostbusters" and teh 1989 "Ghostbusters II", both directed by Reitman's father Ivan, and the fourth film in the Ghostbusters franchise.

The film is set 32 years after the events of "Ghostbusters II", a single mother and her two children move to a small town in Oklahoma, where they discover their connection to the Ghostbusters and their grandfather's secret legacy.

A third Ghostbusters film had been in development since "Ghostbusters II", but stalled as Murray refused to commit. In the end, it became "Ghostbusters: The Video Game", which Dan Aykroyd insisted was essentially the third movie. After cast member Harold Ramis died in 2014, Sony produced a female-driven reboot directed by Paul Feig and released in 2016. After Feig's film drew controversy and failed commercially, Jason Reitman developed a sequel to the original films. The new cast was announced by July 2019, while the original cast signed on two months later. It is posthumously dedicated to Ramis, who is commemorated in the closing credits. Filming took place from July to October 2019.
