Netflix has ordered a new animated Ghostbusters series from the team behind Ghostbusters: Afterlife.

The sequel, which was released in 2021, was a direct follow-up from the first two Ghostbusters films, bypassing the third, female-led entry. Directed by Jason Reitman and co-written by Reitman and Gil Kenan, it introduced a new generation of young ghostbusting stars to the franchise.

Now, Netflix has announced that it’s continuing their take no the franchise with a new animated series exec-produced by the pair. It joins a growing number of animated franchise tie-ins, including Jurassic World: Camp Cretaceous, Fast & Furious Spy Racers and Kung Fu Panda: The Dragon Knight.

The series is not the first animated Ghostbusters outing, with The Real Ghostbusters and Extreme Ghostbusters appearing on the small screen in the 80s and 90s.

Watch this spcae for more details on the series, and whether it will feature any of the same characters as Ghostbusters: Afterlife or be its own standalone entity.
