The new Ghostbusters movie Ghostbusters: Afterlife is coming in November. Hopefully. And today, original star Bill Murray talked about the new film – confirming he will sport a proton pack again. Even if it was “physically painful.”

Murray says: “It was really hard. That’s why I think it’s going to be good, cause it was really hard! We were just in it for a little while, but it was physically painful.
He adds: “I mean, we did it a long time ago, but wearing those packs, is extremely uncomfortable, even though they made the packs, I mean we had batteries the size of batteries, you know, they now have like batteries the size of, you know, earings, but it’s still a pretty heavy thing to wear all the time.”

Bill Murray added: “[Jason] has a really, really wonderful idea that he wrote with another wonderful guy that I got to work with, Gil Kenan [City of Ember].
The two of them wrote a Ghostbusters movie that really brings it back to life and really has the feel of the first one. More than the second one or the girl’s one. It has a different feel than two out of four, and I think he’s really got something.”
Finally, he admits: “I’m glad they did (delayed the film). It’ll be worth seeing.”
The new movie tells the tale of a single mother and her two children. They notice something strange in their neighborhood of Summerville, Oklahoma. So they team with a seismologist school teacher to investigate the paranormal happenings.
The last time we saw the (original) team on the big screen was in Ghostbusters II. It began after the Ghostbusters are disbanded for demolishing parts of the city during a battle. Then Peter Venkman (Bill Murray) learns that spirits have taken an interest in Dana’s son. And the men launch a rogue ghost-chasing mission.
Ghostbusters: Afterlife will hit theatrical on November 11th, 2021.
