Plot Summary
Set three years after the events in Summerville, Oklahoma, the Spengler family—Callie, her partner Gary Grooberson, and her children Trevor and Phoebe—relocate to New York City to assist Winston Zeddemore and Ray Stantz in re-establishing the Ghostbusters. They operate from the iconic firehouse, now upgraded with a top-secret research lab.
The team captures a ghost known as the Hell's Kitchen Sewer Dragon, but their activities draw the ire of Walter Peck, the city's mayor and a long-time opponent of the Ghostbusters, who threatens to shut them down. To appease Peck, Callie removes Phoebe from active duty due to her age. Feeling sidelined, Phoebe befriends Melody, the ghost of a teenage girl who died in a fire.
Meanwhile, Ray and Podcast acquire a mysterious brass orb inscribed with Mesopotamian Arabic. This artifact turns out to be a trap containing Garraka, an ancient death god. When the orb is accidentally opened, Garraka is released, unleashing a spectral army and casting a deathly chill over New York City, threatening to plunge it into a second Ice Age.
The Ghostbusters, both new and old, must unite to confront this apocalyptic threat and save the city from frozen doom.
Reception
Released on March 22, 2024, Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire received mixed reviews from critics. While some praised its nostalgic elements and performances, others felt it lacked the charm and originality of the earlier films. The film grossed approximately $202 million worldwide against a $100 million budget.
A sequel is currently in development.
