Fingers crossed this could also be another chance to see Rick Moranis make his big return to the big screen. These of course include Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd, and Annie Potts, and given how positive the response was to see these characters return, odds are we'll see them again. Notably absent is Podcast ( Logan Kim) - the only major original character from Afterlife not confirmed to return yet, but it seems likely that he will.Īlso, not yet confirmed (but more than likely will be) to return are the legacy characters from the first two films. Also confirmed to return are the kids' school teacher and Callie's potential partner Grooberson ( Paul Rudd) and Trevor's friend Lucky ( Celeste O'Connor). Namely, these include the family of Egon Spangler, including McKenna Grace ( Gifted) as Egon's granddaughter, Phoebe, Finn Wolfhard ( It) as Egon's grandson, Trevor, and Carrie Coon ( Gone Girl) as Egon's daughter, Callie. Nearly the entire main cast from Ghostbusters: Afterlife will be returning for Ghostbusters: Firehouse. The reason? Audiences fell in love with director Ivan Reitman's fantastical ghostly vision of New York as well as the instantly likable characters of the wise-cracking Peter ( Bill Murray), the enthusiastic Ray ( Dan Aykroyd), the genius Egon (Harold Ramis), and the practical Winston ( Ernie Hudson). Yet, Ghostbusters proved to be an underdog story outside the film itself, ultimately grossing over $200 million USD, a total that surpassed the film's budget seven times over. By today's standards, a poor opening weekend is the kiss of death for movies, as that's typically the time when most blockbusters make the most of their money. Things didn't start out so great for the original 1984 film, with the first entry only making about half of its budget in its opening weekend. It's somewhat remarkable that the Ghostbusters series was almost always destined to be a smaller cult classic, yet proved to be the start of a smash-hit franchise.
