"Ghostbusters: Day" turned out to be a bit of a let-down, with no new trailer for the upcoming Ghostbusters: Afterlife or a first look at the returning cast of the classic films. Some new stills were released during IGN's coverage, however.
Along with a new shot of the iconic Ecto-1, we get a first look at Celeste O'Connor's character Lucky, and Logan Kim as Podcast. Plus, the new spooky location (a haunted mansion, appropriately) was unveiled as the action moves away from New York City and into a more rural setting.
From director Jason Reitman and producer Ivan Reitman, comes the next chapter in the original Ghostbusters universe. In Ghostbusters: Afterlife, when a single mom and her two kids arrive in a small town, they begin to discover their connection to the original ghostbusters and the secret legacy their grandfather left behind.
Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd, Ernie Hudson, Sigourney Weaver, and Annie Potts have all been confirmed to reprise their roles from the original movies, and they'll be joined by Paul Rudd (Ant-Man), Carrie Coon (Fargo), Finn Wolfhard (Stranger Things) and Mckenna Grace (Captain Marvel).
Ghostbusters: Afterlife is currently set to blast into theaters on November 11, 2021.
