There’s a lot to soak up right here – beginning with that chilled-to-the-bone premise, with a lethal ice outbreak bringing goosebumps to New York residents in each a worry sense, and an oh-god-it’s-cold sense.

This time, it appears they’re getting extra used to their ghost-busting duties – and did you see the snazzy new crimson get-up they’re donning? As effectively because the Afterlife crew returning, the OG ‘busters appear to have an even bigger half to play right here – the return to NYC means we’re again in that iconic firehouse, and we see temporary pictures of Dan Aykroyd’s Ray, Bill Murray’s Venkman, and Ernie Hudson’s Winston again in motion too. Fire up the Proton packs!
