The eagerly anticipated ‘Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire‘ is not just a movie; it’s an experience, according to Mckenna Grace and Finn Wolfhard. With the Spengler family back in action, the film promises to deliver an unforgettable mix of nostalgia, humor, and spine-tingling adventure. Here’s why this chapter in the Ghostbusters saga is unmissable.
A Return to Origins
Mckenna Grace, portraying the brilliant Phoebe Spengler, highlights the significant shift in scenery and scale in ‘Frozen Empire.’ “It’s in New York, it brings us back to where the Ghostbusters originated so that’s really special,” says Grace. “New villain, new storylines, new problems that at least Phoebe has never encountered. It’s bigger scale, more blockbuster, action, there’s a lot. It’s very fun.”
The Ultimate Team-Up
Finn Wolfhard, stepping into the shoes of Trevor, Phoebe’s older brother, is thrilled about the on-screen collaboration between the new and original Ghostbusters. “This movie is incredibly fun because you have the original Ghostbusters teaming up with the new Ghostbusters,” says Wolfhard. “It’s hard to believe that we’re all in the same room together, working on the same scenes. It’s very surreal but super rewarding.” This unprecedented alliance forms the heart of the movie, blending the iconic humor and camaraderie of the original films with the vibrant energy of the new generation.
A Chilling New Adversary
The stakes are higher than ever as our heroes face Garraka, a spectral force with the power to unleash a deadly frost upon the world. Grace describes Garraka as “a terrifying villain,” setting the tone for a movie that masterfully balances the thrill of the ghost hunt with the chill of a supernatural apocalypse.
Laughter in the Face of Danger
Despite the looming threat, ‘Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire‘ stays true to its roots by weaving humor throughout its narrative. “There’s a genius in how the original films blended scares with comedy,” Wolfhard reflects, affirming that the new movie follows in these footsteps, ensuring that audiences are kept on the edge of their seats, chuckling all the while.
A Legacy Continued
For both Grace and Wolfhard, being part of the Ghostbusters legacy is a dream come true. “It’s an honor to contribute to this saga,” Wolfhard shares, emphasizing the film’s deep respect for its predecessors and its aim to captivate die-hard fans and newcomers alike.
