What is the plot of Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire?

After the events in Ghostbusters Afterlife, the Spenglers leave Oklahoma to return to where it all began – the New York City firehouse. 

The original Ghostbusters, after years of arduous research and experiments, have finally built a brand-new tech to help them with their ghost-busting adventures, and the Spengler family are keen to be a part of it. 

However, it looks like they’re going to need their new tech as soon as possible after an ancient artifact unleashes evil that can freeze the world to oblivion.

Now, the new Ghostbusters, which include the Spenglers and friends, have to work together to fight an adversary hellbent on destroying the planet with another ice age. 

Ghostbusters Afterlife co-writer Gil Kenan now serves as the sequel’s director. He also co-wrote Frozen Empire with Jason Reitman. Additionally, Reitman is a producer alongside Jason Blumenfeld and his late father Ivan Reitman, who co-created and directed the original Ghostbuster films in 1984 and 1989.
