Box Office Preview: ‘Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire’ Aims for $45 Million Opening Weekend


The latest "Ghostbusters" movie is looking to collect $45 million from 4,300 theaters in its domestic box office debut.

The newest entry takes place about four decades after the original — the ill-fated 2016 reboot doesn’t exist in this universe — and centers around a family with a connection to the legendary ghost-catching business. In “Frozen Empire,” the new recruits (Paul Rudd, Carrie Coon and Finn Wolfhard) team up with veteran Ghostbusters (Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd, Ernie Hudson and Annie Potts) to prevent an apocalyptic diety from igniting a second Ice Age. Despite mixed reviews, critics have been complimentary of Sweeney’s performance with Variety’s Stephen Saito writing, “the film shows how she can really hold the screen.”
