With Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire set to arrive in theaters in just over three months, we’re thrilled to bring you the first look at the film’s brand new poster, revealed through the official Ghostbusters social media accounts, writes our friends over at Ghostbusters News.
Similar to the teaser trailer released in October, the poster sets the stage for a chilling battle as New York City is caught in the midst of the Death Chill, with the Ghostbusters, new and old, joining forces to protect their home and save the world from a second Ice Age.

Sony Pictures has also released a few additional variant/international posters, below, that keep the overall tone and spectral threat present, with the first swapping the Manhattan Bridge for the Brooklyn Bridge and another that features the Empire State Building.
It’s clear that the marketing for Frozen Empire is in full swing, with today’s poster reveal following Empire Magazine exclusive, which featured a new on-set photo of stars Bill Murray and Paul Rudd, below, along with recent comments from director Gil Kenan, who’d mention the film’s “terrifying stakes” that signals “the post-Gozerian era of the Ghostbusters saga.”
“We are now in the post-Gozerian era of the Ghostbusters saga, so that means we’re able to stretch out and create an entirely new mythology. And that’s thrilling as a storyteller because there are all-new and terrifying stakes with fresh visual references to draw on.”
When it comes to other recent comments and interviews, franchise newcomer Kumail Nanjiani spoke about the new movie, saying: “There’s some really, genuinely scary stuff. The scary stuff is actually scary”, adding, “The danger is very real, and the stakes are very high. That makes the comedy even funnier.”
Scheduled to arrive in theaters on Easter weekend, March 29th, 2024, Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire stars Paul Rudd, Carrie Coon, Mckenna Grace, Finn Wolfhard, Logan Kim, Celeste O’Connor, Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd, Ernie Hudson, and Annie Potts, in addition to series newcomers Kumail Nanjiani, Patton Oswalt, James Acaster, and Emily Alyn Lind.

Marc is a self-confessed nerd. Ever since seeing Star Wars for the first time around 1979 he’s been an unapologetic fan of the Wars and still believes, with Clone Wars and now Underworld, we are yet to see the best Star Wars. He’s a dad of two who now doesn’t have the time (or money) to collect the amount of toys, comics, movies and books he once did, much to the relief of his long-suffering wife. In the real world he’s a graphic designer. He started Following the Nerd because he was tired of searching a million sites every day for all the best news that he loves and decided to create one place where you can go to get the whole lot. Secretly he longs to be sitting in the cockpit of his YT-1300 Corellian Transport ship with his co-pilot Chewie, roaming the universe, waiting for his next big adventure, but feels just at home watching cartoons with his kids….
