BREAKING: Ghostbusters 5 announced by Sony Writer, director and cast have yet to be revealed
Sony announced that they've given the green light to Ghostbusters 5. The Ghostbusters franchise began in 1984 with the release of the surprise mega-hit Ghostbusters, which was directed by Ivan Reitman and starred Bill Murray, Harold Ramis, Dan Aykroyd, and Ernie Hudson as four men who start up a business helping New Yorkers get rid of ghosts. The film spawned a massive multimedia franchise that included a 1989 sequel, two animated series, and plenty of tie-in toys, comics, and video games.
Although that film performed reasonably well at the box office, it couldn't quite overcome its massive budget and the misogynistic outcry from online commenters. Sony revamped the franchise yet again with Ghostbusters: Afterlife, which cast Finn Wolfhard and Mckenna Grace as the grandchildren of Ramis' character Egon Spengler.
Though the promise of another installment is exciting, Sony has not confirmed if any cast members will be returning for Ghostbusters 5. The same goes for the crew, which includes director Jason Reitman, whose father directed the original film. Although he is in pre-production as a producer on a Diablo Cody project with HBO, he does not currently have any officially announced directorial features in progress, so he will more than likely jump on board soon if he is interested.
Despite the lack of details regarding the film overall, it’s easy to speculate the shape this film may take. Because of how quickly this green light was given, it is probable that Ghostbusters 5 will be a direct follow-up to Afterlife, which ended with a stinger scene teasing that the Ghostbusters’ ecto-containment unit is experiencing a breach of some kind.
