New York falls under a spectral “death chill” in Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire teaser
The Spengler family returns to their New York City roots to battle an evil force in Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire.
A mysterious evil force has put New York City into a deadly deep freeze in the first official teaser for Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire, Jason Reitman's much-anticipated follow-up to his successful 2021 sequel, Ghostbusters: Afterlife. (Jason is the son of the late Ivan Reitman, who directed the first two films in the franchise in the 1980s, so it's very much a family affair.)
(Spoilers for Ghostbusters: Afterlife below.)
Afterlife introduced us to a new generation of ghostbusters descended from Egon Spengler (the late Harold Ramis), namely, the science-loving Phoebe (McKenna Grace) and her mechanically inclined brother Trevor (Finn Wolfhard). Mom Callie (Carrie Coon), aka Egon's daughter, moved the family out to Oklahoma when she inherited Egon's old house. The kids discovered their grandfather's old ghost-busting gear just in time to battle the attempted return of none other than Gozer the Gozerian from the original 1984 film.
