Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire director Gil Kenan shares an update on the future of the franchise following the lukewarm reception to his most recent installment. After the success of Ghostbusters: Afterlife (2021), the Ghostbusters franchise returned in 2023 with Frozen Empire, a film that sees new and legacy characters come together to stop a villain named Garraka from destroying New York City. Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire reviews were mixed from critics, and the film wasn’t a box office hit, raising questions about what’s next for the franchise.
