Sony Pictures has debuted a new international poster for Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire, and this latest piece of marketing focuses on the new crew of spook-hunters that were introduced in the last movie, Afterlife.
The new team consisting of Gary Grooberson (Paul Rudd), the late Egon's daughter Callie Spengler (Carrie Coon), along with her kids Trevor (Finn Wolfhard), and Phoebe (McKenna Grace). The poster also spotlights Lucky (Celeste O'Connor), Podcast (Logan Kim), and Kumail Nanjiani's new character Nadeem Razmaadi.
Slimer, the gluttonous ghost first introduced in the original movie, also makes an appearance. Classic heroes Ray Stantz (Dan Aykroyd), Peter Venkmann (Bill Murray) and Winston Zeddemore (Ernie Hudson) will also return to suit-up alongside Janine Melnitz (Annie Potts).
Check out the new poster below, along with a recently-released Valentine's Day featurette.
The story focuses on a mysterious artefact brought to Ray by Kumail Nanjiani's character, which unleashes a terrifying entity known as Garraka, who is capable of bringing about a second ice-age.
During a recent interview, Nanjiani indicated that the movie will up the ante somewhat when it comes to genuine frights.
“There’s some really, genuinely scary stuff. The scary stuff is actually scary," said the actor. "The danger is very real and the stakes are very high. That makes the comedy even funnier,” adding that, “Everybody gets to be funny.”
"In Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire, the Spengler family decide to leave Summerville, Oklahoma and go back to where it all started – the iconic New York City firehouse – and help the original Ghostbusters, who've developed a top-secret research lab to take busting ghosts to the next level! But when the discovery of an ancient artifact unleashes a mysterious and evil force, known as the Death Chill, Ghostbusters new and old must join forces to protect their home and save the world from a deadly and unpredictable fate that unknowingly, could affect earth’s history with a second Ice Age."
Directed by Gil Kenan (Afterlife helmer Jason Reitman co-wrote the movie and is on board as an executive producer), Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire is set to scare its way into theatres this March.
