'Ghostbusters: Afterlife' hits theaters. Will audiences answer the call?
CNN
In 1984, a film about three New York City owners of an unconventional startup took the country by storm, leading people — young and old — to ask one simple question: "Who you gonna call?"
That film was "Ghostbusters," one of the most successful comedies of all time. Now, 37 years later, a new group of paranomal patrollers are strapping on their proton packs (and trying to not cross the streams) with "Ghostbusters: Afterlife." The latest film in the spooky franchise haunts theaters this weekend.
"Afterlife" — which stars Paul Rudd, Mckenna Grace and Finn Wolfhard — is expected to have roughly a $30 million opening in North America this weekend, according to industry expectations. That's a solid start for the film, which made $4.5 million on Thursday night.
