History

The company was formed in March 2015 by Sony Pictures Entertainment in order to create a Ghostbusters cinematic universe and expand the Ghostbusters brand into films, television series, and merchandise. The company is currently headed by Jason Reitman and Dan Aykroyd, along with Montecito Picture Company partners Tom Pollock and Joe Medjuck.[3][4]

Projects

The company's first project, titled Ghostbusters, was a live-action reboot with a female-oriented cast.[5] directed by Paul Feig, was released on July 15, 2016.

Its second project, a sequel to the original Ghostbusters films, titled Ghostbusters: Afterlife was announced by Sony Pictures and Ghost Corps. It was released in theaters on November 19, 2021. The film takes place in the original timeline set by the first two films. Jason Reitman, the son of Ghostbusters' original director Ivan Reitman, directed the sequel.[6] A teaser trailer was released on January 14, 2019.[7]

Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire was announced in April 2022 as the company's third project.[8] It was originally scheduled for release on December 20, 2023,[9] but was delayed to March 29, 2024 due to the 2023 SAG-AFTRA strike,[10] before being moved up a week to March 22, 2024 in January 2024.[11]
