‘Ghostbusters: Afterlife’ Trailer: Who You Gonna Call?

It’s been over a year, but Sony has finally released a new official trailer for Ghostbusters: Afterlife. Let’s take a look and see what has changed for our favorite paranormal investigators after thirty years away.

I know I’m in the minority when I say this, but I think this might end up being the best Ghostbusters film. The original 1984 film is perfectly good, and the 2016 film was better than expected, but the trailers for Afterlife have just been pulling me in.

I’ve always been a fan of legacyquels – sequels that pick up decades after the last instalment. There is something interesting and appealing to me to see characters return to the big screen so long after we last saw them. What have they been up to? How have they changed? I’m always willing to give the movie a chance to find out.

Whether or not Ghostbusters: Afterlife can stick the landing and deliver a film that will please both new and old fans is still up in the air. But I know that I’ll be there opening night. If you want to join me, you know who to call.

Plot Synopsis:

Set in the universe of the first two Ivan Reitman films from the 1980s, “Ghostbusters: Afterlife” tells the story of Callie, a single mom struggling to survive in Chicago with her two kids, 12-year-old Phoebe and 15-year-old Trevor. When Callie receives news of her long-estranged father’s passing – a father she never even knew – she and the kids pack up the Subaru and move to the small midwestern town of Summerville.
As the family settles into their “inheritance,” a rotting, worthless dirt farm, they soon discover that they have mysterious ties to a team of paranormal investigators called the Ghostbusters, the specter-catching team who saved New York City from supernatural destruction 35 years ago.

Ghostbusters: Afterlife hits theaters November 11, 2021.
