As soon as Star Wars: The Force Awakens introduced again Luke, Han, and Leia to huge field workplace success, legacy sequels actually began working extra time to maintain the unique (and accessible) franchise stars round when potential. Ghostbusters: Afterlife introduced again the still-living Ghostbusters from the unique two films, and so they’re again once more alongside an also-returning Annie Potts for March’s Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire.

Speaking to SFX Magazine, director Gil Kenan promised the fifth movie will do proper by the unique forged by having them be precise characters. Some legacy sequels deliver again the older stars simply to gather a paycheck, however Kenan promised the veterans could be “extra totally fleshed out” right here. “We had an obligation to make these legendary characters integral to this story.”

Kenan co-wrote each Afterlife and Frozen Empire with Jason Reitman (who directed the previous). As a fan of the collection, having Winston, Venkman, and Ray present up in Afterlife was “actually thrilling,” as a result of he felt the movie “redefine itself” with their arrival. “[They] grew and have become extra totally fleshed out in a means that speaks to the promise of the unique Ghostbusters and Ghostbusters 2,” stated Kenan. “There’s a direct line from there into who they’re now and the way they act right here in our new story.”

Afterlife was dinged for overly counting on fan service, a criticism that’s caught to Frozen Empire with a few of its advertising up to now. If the brand new movie goes to have extra to supply than seeing the unique forged go well with up One Final Time (once more), hopefully that’s higher conveyed so audiences know what to anticipate.

Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire releases in theaters on March 22.
