Get ready for some ghostly giggles! Netflix officially orders a new animated 'Ghostbusters' series with comedy genius Elliott Kalan on board.
The supernatural shenanigans are back in action! Netflix has officially ordered a brand new animated series of the beloved franchise, "Ghostbusters." This exciting news comes after the series was initially announced two years ago and is set to deliver some animated magic that fans have been patiently waiting for. With a fresh team behind the curtain, including Elliott Kalan, known for his witty writing on shows like "The Daily Show" and "Mystery Science Theater 3000," audiences are in for a treat that combines nostalgia with a modern twist.
The series will be produced by Sony Pictures Animation, ensuring that the visual flair matches the spirit of the original movies. Executive producers Jason Reitman and Gil Kenan from Ghost Corps, Inc., are on board to sprinkle their experience from the franchise into this new endeavor. Mr. Reitman, who is recognized not just for his directorial chops but also as the son of the original director Ivan Reitman, promises to keep the essence of Ghostbusters alive while introducing new adventures and hilarious ghostbusting antics.
While details about the plot remain shrouded in mystery—much like the ghosts the team is intended to capture—fans can expect plenty of laughs and spine-tingling moments. The combination of Kalan's unique comedic style and the team's production prowess is sure to attract a diverse audience. It's the perfect recipe for a series that aims to resonate with both longtime enthusiasts of the franchise and new fans alike.
With the production gaining momentum right after the successful viewership of Netflix’s “Frozen Empire,” the networks have clearly tapped into the growing appetite for animated content. This ghostly revival has fans buzzing on various platforms as everyone eagerly wonders what hilarious misadventures await our favorite ghostbusters in their animated reincarnation. Expect to suit up and pick up your proton packs soon! In the meantime, did you know that the original "Ghostbusters" film from 1984 was a massive hit, grossing over $295 million worldwide? And also, the franchise has spawned not just movies, but an array of video games, toys, and comics that have secured its spot in pop culture history!
