What comes after Afterlife?
I suppose we’re going to discover out. Throughout their CinemaCon presentation this week in Las Vegas, Sony confirmed that work is underway on a brand new Ghostbusters film. This is able to mark the fifth movie within the long-running and typically beloved (and typically inexplicably controversial) franchise a few bunch of schlubs who catch ghosts. The latest movie within the saga, Ghostbusters: Afterlife, offered a proverbial resurrection for the collection’ unique continuity, and featured a lot of the surviving members of the unique solid, together with Invoice Muirray, Dan Aykroyd, Ernie Hudson, Sigourney Weaver, and Annie Potts.
Afterlife — which was directed by Jason Reitman and produced by Ivan Reitman earlier than the filmmaker’s passing earlier this 12 months — grossed $129 million in the US and simply $68 million abroad. That’s not precisely the kind of box-office complete that usually qualifies as a blockbuster lately, however apparently it was adequate for Sony to start work on yet one more movie.
The studio didn’t announce any actors or whether or not Jason Reitman is as soon as once more concerned. If the plan is to proceed with the characters established in Afterlife, the film did go away issues on a cliffhanger that may very well be picked again up in an After-Afterlife movie. (Minor spoilers to observe.) In a post-credits scene, it seems that former Ghostbuster Winston is now an enormously rich man, and he returns to the outdated firehouse in Tribeca the place the group used to hang around, seemingly set on restarting their outdated enterprise. In the meantime, a light-weight on the outdated ghost lure within the firehouse’s basement is flashing crimson.
Man, these Ghostbusters have been actually irresponsible tenants. They simply left the ghosts once they moved out? Perhaps Walter Peck had a degree about them!
Nonetheless, that does go away some room for a brand new Ghostbusters film to select up these threads, with Winston and maybe even a few of the youthful characters launched in Afterlife launching a brand new workforce. Or Sony may discard all of that and begin over from scratch. Or they may make a brand new film that includes the solid of the Paul Feig Ghostbusters. Proper now, all we all know is that busting will make somebody really feel good once more within the close to future.
