A new promo has been released for director Jason Reitman’s Ghostbusters: Afterlife, which is set to reach theatres in a couple weeks, on November 19th. This promo is embedded above, and it introduces us to the character Podcast, played by Logan Kim, by having Kim go around annoying his co-stars Mckenna Grace, Celeste O’Connor, and Finn Wolfhard. Not exactly the best introduction to the character as far as I’m concerned, but it’s clearly aimed at the younger members of the audience, so maybe it will go over better with viewers who are closer in age to the actors in the promo.
Written by Reitman and Gil Kenan, Ghostbusters: Afterlife stars Carrie Coon, Wolfhard, and Grace as
a family with single mom Callie and her two kids, Trevor and Phoebe, who move into a beaten-down farmhouse in Oklahoma only to discover that there’s something strange in the neighborhood. Unexplained quakes shake the town. There’s an old mine nearby that bears the name of Ivo Shandor, who built the Manhattan high-rise in the 1984 film that channeled the forces of evil.

Paul Rudd plays “a local teacher who’s been documenting the unexplained phenomena, befriending Callie and her kids, and helping make the connection between the current weirdness and the events of three decades before”. Also in the cast are Bokeem Woodbine, Tracy Letts, and Oliver Cooper, with Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd, Ernie Hudson, Sigourney Weaver, and Annie Potts reprising their roles from the first Ghostbusters (watch it HERE) and Ghostbusters II (watch that one HERE).
Jason Reitman’s father Ivan Reitman (who directed the first two movies) produced Ghostbusters: Afterlife, with Aykroyd serving as executive producer alongside Jason Blumenfeld, Michael Beugg, Aaron L. Gilbert, Jason Cloth, and Kenan.
Our own Chris Bumbray already had the chance to watch Ghostbusters: Afterlife and gave the film an 8/10 review you can read at THIS LINK. I can’t wait to see it for myself.
