The trailer for “Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire” offers a chilling glimpse into the March 22nd sequel. Set in an icy New York, the preview highlights supernatural action amidst the slick, frozen streets – the Ectomobile fishtailing around ice-encased skyscrapers, familiar faces dodging menacing frozen specters.
While franchise veterans like Bill Murray and Dan Aykroyd reprise their roles, rising star Mckenna Grace takes center stage reprising her role as Phoebe from “Ghostbusters: Afterlife” . We see her character wielding glowing ghost traps, bantering with Murray’s Peter Venkman, and unleashing proton packs against icy ghouls. The trailer suggests a frosty coming-of-age for the young Ghostbuster.
Other stand-out sequences include Venkman’s quip warning about a “tall, dark and horny” beast; an ancient artifact surrounded by ominous hooded figures; the Statue of Liberty frosted mid-torch raise. Director Gil Kenan brings his horror chops to the frozen paranormal encounters.
The trailer blends legacy cast with the likes of Paul Rudd, hinting this generational mash-up may be the franchise’s most exciting dimension. While major story details remain under wraps, the previews make Frost Empire’s basic chill premise clear – ghostly showdown by way of a wintry Manhattan landscape.
With its icy world-building and youthful star turn from Grace, the trailer depicts a franchise expanding in scope while staying true to its comedic core. Venkman’s one-liner proves Kenan knows when to mix humor with horror amidst the flurries of phantasmal action.
