James Acaster shining a flashlight and looking up in shock in Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire
The Big Picture Sony’s Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire has passed a major box office milestone, over two months into its quietly successful theatrical run. The film debuted in theaters worldwide back in mid-March, and was released on PVOD platforms in early May. But despite having lost a significant number of theaters since then, Frozen Empire has held its ground, delivering a series of strong holds, especially at the domestic box office.
Frozen Empire serves as a direct sequel to Afterlife, which was a sleeper hit of sorts in mid-pandemic 2021. Directed by Jason Reitman, the film concluded its theatrical run with just under $130 million domestically and $203 million worldwide. It fell short of Paul Feig’s controversial 2016 film, which defied horrendous online fan behavior to gross just under $130 million domestically and nearly $230 million worldwide.
The Ghostbusters franchise began in 1984 with director Ivan Reitman’s classic first film, which grossed nearly $300 million worldwide. It remains the series’ biggest hit, and was followed by 1989’s GhostbustersII. Plans to make a third film were floated for years, before Feig rebooted the series in 2016.
