About Ghostbusters II in brief
Ghostbusters II is a 1989 American supernatural comedy film directed by Ivan Reitman and written by Dan Aykroyd and Harold Ramis. It is the sequel to the 1984 film Ghostbusters and the second film in the Ghostbusters franchise. Set five years after the events of the first film, the Ghostbusters have been sued and put out of business after the destruction caused during their battle with the demi-god Gozer. A new paranormal threat emerges and the Ghostbusters reunite to combat it and save the world. Ghostbusters II was released on June 16, 1989, to generally negative reviews. It earned USD 215. 4 million during its theatrical run compared with the original’s USD 282. 2 million, making it the eighth-highest-grossing film of the year. The film spawned a series of merchandise including video games, board games, comic books, music, toys, and haunted houses. Despite the relative failure of Ghostbusters II, a second sequel was pursued through to the early 2010s. A financially unsuccessful and controversial 2016 series reboot led to renewed efforts on a direct sequel, Ghostbusters: Afterlife, which is scheduled for release in 2021. The first film was released in 1984 and was the highest- grossing comedy film of all time. It was followed by Ghostbusters I in 1987, and Ghostbusters V in 1988, both of which were box-office successes. The second film is expected to be released in 2018 and is scheduled to star Bill Murray, Sigourney Weaver, Rick Moranis, Ernie Hudson, Annie Potts, Peter MacNicol, Peter Venkman, Peter Stantz, Winston Zeddemore, and others.
