It is time to welcome the return of the Spengler family. After the 2021 film paranormal-comedy Ghostbusters: Afterlife, director Gil Kenan has come up with the film’s sequel Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire. Featuring stars like Paul Rudd, Carrie Coon, Mckenna Grace, and Stranger Things fame Finn Wolfhard, the upcoming movie is slated to release theatrically on March 22. The Ghostbusters film franchise traces back to 1984. Titled Ghostbusters, it was helmed by director Ivan Reitman. Over time the movie series developed a devout fan following. Now, with the release of Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire’s trailer, movie enthusiasts are waiting with bated breaths to watch the film.
The trailer shows the new generation kids of the Spenglers family taking up the paranormal business. They form a team with the original Ghostbusters — Bill Murray, Ernie Hudson, Dan Aykroyd, and Annie Potts. These veterans created a top-notch secret lab research centre to study ghosts and evolve them with scientific methods. But, when the discovery of a ball-shaped artefact unleashes a malicious force, the new and old Ghostbusters assemble under one roof to work together and save the world from an imminent danger — the second Ice Age.
The trailer begins with paranormal activities taking place in New York City with an auctioneer announcing that they will be paying “top dollar" for people’s “possessed possessions." One person arrives with a golden ball-shaped object and bids it for 60 dollars. But soon after taking the antique piece out of the box, books start falling and the skies turn overcast indicating a terrifying ghost attack. With the attacks on the rise, the Spenglers family takes up the responsibility to save the world from dying. They seek the help of the experienced Ghostbusters who faced similar situations before.
Apart from the scary ones, there are also cute spirits who mean no harm to anyone. “We could be looking at a full-bore army of ghosts with the power to kill by fear itself," says a Ghostbuster as the temperatures start dipping dramatically in the city and creating a freezing atmosphere upon the scary attacks. The high-level graphics and grim visuals with umpteen fight sequences with the spirits make up for a promising watch.
Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire also stars Kumail Nanjiani, Patton Oswalt, Celeste O’Connor, Dan Aykroyd, and Ernie Hudson among others.
