Ghostbusters: Afterlife was supposed to hit theaters next month, but Sony was forced to delay the film almost a year due to Covid-19. Fans were understandably upset, but the extended wait is allowing director Jason Reitman to not only fine-tune the movie, but also think about the future of the franchise.
While on a Zoom call with the original Ghostbusters cast, Reitman revealed that he’s already developing another sequel, saying:
“I can’t tell you anything, but we are working on another installment. We have a little bit more time, and look, as a director, I’ve never had this opportunity to actually take a pause and breathe and look at the movie again. [The extra time has been] extraordinarily valuable. I’ve been spending my days editing Ghostbusters, so that’s where I’ve been.”
Ghostbusters: Afterlife follows a single mom who moves her two kids to a small town to start over.
