Ghostbusters: Afterlife star Mckenna Grace shares her excitement to return for the upcoming sequel. 'I'm constantly pressuring Jason Reitman, our director, I'm always trying to figure out what the story is.'
With nearly a year remaining until the film's release, Ghostbusters: Afterlife star Mckenna Grace opens up about her excitement to play her character again in Ghostbusters 5. Grace starred in the 2021 sequel as Phoebe Spengler, granddaughter of Harold Ramis' original Ghostbuster Egon who moves into his dilapidated Oklahoma farmhouse after they're evicted and inherit the property.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY Alongside Grace, the cast for Ghostbusters: Afterlife featured both new and returning franchise faces, including Finn Wolfhard, Carrie Coon, Paul Rudd, Bill Murray, Ernie Hudson, Dan Aykroyd, Sigourney Weaver and Annie Potts. Co-written and directed by Jason Reitman, son of original Ghostbusters director Ivan, the 2021 film scored generally favorable reviews from critics and audiences alike for its cast and nostalgic tone, while its fan service left some divided.
I'm constantly pressuring Jason Reitman, our director, I'm always trying to figure out what the story is. I literally have no ounce of a clue what the story is. If I knew about a Marvel film or if I knew about Ghostbusters, I'd be sitting here, and I'd be like, 'I have no clue, and it's driving me nuts.' I'm just excited to do a second one. I'm just excited to be Phoebe.
Where Ghostbusters 5's Story Could Go Though Grace may not know much about Ghostbusters 5's potential story, Reitman has previously confirmed that the film will return the events of the story to New York City and continue the Spengler family's journeys.
It is interesting to note that Grace has yet to hear of any story tidbits or see a script for Ghostbusters 5. Given the film is slated for a December 2023 release, it seems likely filming would need to begin in the next couple of months to make its release date, though given Ghostbusters: Afterlife was completed in less than three months, production on Ghostbusters 5 may not begin until after the new year.
