The Details

According to Sneider, the films directed ( The Tigers Apprentice ) and will be a wholly new entry in the franchise. Sony first just dropped its plans to make an animated Ghostbusters movie back in 2016 with the initial premise of telling a film from the ghosts perspective .

Its rn unclear if this movie will still go that route, but the studios been trying to make new cartoons out of the property for a while now: a Netflix series was just dropped back in 2022 with little drops of information in the years since, such as it being in CG and animated by Legend of Aang studio Flying Bark . At time of writing, its also a question mark whether this animated movie and show will connect in any way.
