‘Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire’ – Promo Photo from Empire Magazine Reunites Peter, Ray, Winston and Janine!
The original Ghostbusters are back in Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire, and the brand new issue of Empire Magazine reveals an awesome new shot of the crew reunited once more.
Peter Venkman (Bill Murray), Ray Stantz (Dan Aykroyd), Winston Zeddemore (Ernie Hudson), and Janine Melnitz (Annie Potts) are all back in the brand new Ghostbusters movie, and one of the two collectible covers from Empire – which glow in the dark, by the way – features all four iconic legacy characters suited up and doing what they do best – bustin’ ghosts!
Of particular note, Janine takes center stage in the official promo shot, suggesting that Annie Potts will be playing a much more active role in Frozen Empire than she did in Afterlife.
The other cover features the new characters that were introduced in Ghostbusters: Afterlife, and it also teases a new ghost and some brand new busting technology from Frozen Empire.
Check out both Empire Magazine covers below and learn more here.
Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire will release in theaters on March 22, 2024.
In Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire, the Spengler family returns to where it all started – the iconic New York City firehouse – to team up with 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 an evil force, Ghostbusters new and old must join forces to protect their home and save the world from a second Ice Age.
Gil Kenan (Monster House, Poltergeist) directed the upcoming sequel.
The cast includes Patton Oswalt, Kumail Nanjiani, James Acaster, and Emily Alyn Lind, alongside Bill Murray, Finn Wolfhard, Ernie Hudson, Mckenna Grace, Paul Rudd, Celeste O’Connor, Logan Kim, Annie Potts, Dan Aykroyd and Carrie Coon.
Jason Reitman, who directed Ghostbusters: Afterlife, is back to produce Frozen Empire.
Hey, remember that there’s a Faces of Death remake on the way from Legendary Entertainment and Cam filmmakers Isa Mazzei and Daniel Goldhaber?! It’s been a while since we’ve heard a peep about this one, but the film’s MPA rating has been handed in this week.
The upcoming Faces of Death remake is rated “R” for…
“Strong bloody violence and gore, sexual content, nudity, language and drug use.”
Musician Charli XCX will make her feature debut in Faces of Death.
Dacre Montgomery (“Stranger Things”), Barbie Ferreira (“Euphoria”), Josie Totah (“Saved by the Bell”) and Aaron Holliday (Cocaine Bear) are also set to star.
How do you remake Faces of Death? It sounds like Mazzei and Goldhaber have come up with an interesting approach for this one. Here’s what we know about this mysterious project.

The original Faces of Death, released in 1978, is one of the most infamous films of all time, allegedly showcasing real footage of real death. In actuality, of course, much of the horrifying footage seen in Faces of Death is staged, with gory special effects often being paired up with real footage to create the illusion of gruesome reality. Early found footage, in other words.
The new story was conceived by Isa Mazzei and Daniel Goldhaber. Like the original film, Legendary is reportedly hoping the new one will spawn a multi-film franchise.
“Faces of Death was one of the first viral video tapes, and we are so lucky to be able to use it as a jumping off point for this exploration of cycles of violence and the way they perpetuate themselves online,” said Mazzei and Goldhaber in a recent statement.
“The new plot revolves around a female moderator of a YouTube-like website, whose job is to weed out offensive and violent content and who herself is recovering from a serious trauma, that stumbles across a group that is recreating the murders from the original film. But in the story primed for the digital age and age of online misinformation, the question faced is are the murders real or fake?”
The original movie was written and directed by the late John Allan Schwartz.
