'GHOSTBUSTERS: AFTERLIFE' Sequel Adds Patton Oswalt And Kumail Nanjiani To Cast

 

With filming officially underway for Jason Reitman’s sequel to ‘GHOSTBUSTERS: AFTERLIFE’, news has come our way that two more actors have joined in on the ghost bustin.

Deadline reports that Patton Oswalt and Kumail Nanjiani have been cast alongside returning franchise stars.

James Acaster (Repertoire) and Emily Alyn Lind (Doctor Sleep) will also star.

Jason Reitman, who directed Ghostbusters: Afterlife, is producing the upcoming sequel. The film is scheduled to bring the ghosts back to theaters on December 20, 2023.

Ernie Hudson is said to be returning once again as Winston Zeddemore, with Mckenna Grace, Paul Rudd, and Carrie Coon also expected to return in the Afterlife sequel.

Last we heard, the upcoming movie will return to New York City and the iconic firehouse made famous in the original Ghostbusters films – thus the working title, Firehouse.

“It’s an absolute honor to pick up the proton pack and step behind the camera for the next chapter of the Spengler family saga. I just wish I could go back to 1984 and tell the kid in the sixth row of the Mann Valley West that one day he was going to get to direct a Ghostbusters film,” said Kenan in a recent statement.
