Ghostbusters: Afterlife's sequel has confirmed new details, with the new movie set to bring back Marvel's Paul Rudd and Carrie Coon, and Stranger Things' Finn Wolfhard.
The follow up to the classic franchise was released last year, with a sequel confirmed to be releasing in 2023.
Deadline now reports that the ensemble is set to return, with plans to go back to the location of New York City from the original movies.

Gil Kenan is set to take over as director from Jason Reitman, who will co-write and produce alongside Kenan and Jason Blumenfeld.
"It's an absolute honor to pick up the proton pack and step behind the camera for the next chapter of the Spengler family saga," Kenan said.
"I just wish I could go back to 1984 and tell the kid in the sixth row of the Mann Valley West that one day he was going to get to direct a Ghostbusters film."

Reitman added: "A few years ago, my father handed me the keys to Ecto-1, and together we made Ghostbusters: Afterlife. Words will never express how grateful I am to have made a film with my father by my side.
"It's now time to hand those keys to my creative partner and fellow Ghostbuster Gil Kenan, a brilliant director who will keep the Spengler spirit alive. I can only hope to provide him the same producorial care and support that my father showed me."
It was previously confirmed that Eddie Hudson will be back as Winston Zeddemore in the planned sequel, having appeared alongside fellow returnees Bill Murray and Dan Akyroyd in last year's Afterlife.
Ghostbusters: Afterlife's sequel will be released in cinemas on December 20, 2023.
