The latest Ghostbusters FILM, Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire topped the North American Box Office after grossing US$45.2 million. The film’s achievements are unique.
“There have only been four comedy series, in 27 years, that have managed to reach five episodes,” said Box Office analyst David A Gross regarding Sony’s latest film.
However, with a production cost of US$100 million, Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire is still a long way from making a profit.
Written by Jason Reitman, whose father Ivan Reitman directed the first Ghostbusters film in 1984, Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire pits new ghost-catching team Paul Rudd and Carrie Coon against veterans Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd and Ernie Hudson to battle a supernatural being who wants to ushered in a new ice age.

The horror film Immaculate, produced by the indie production house, Neon, starring Sydney Sweeney took fourth place with US$5.4 million.
Sweeney plays a nun who suddenly becomes pregnant. Even though he was initially treated as the successor of the Virgin Mary, things turned sinister.
The fifth position is occupied by Arthur the King which earned US$4.4 million. This Lionsgate-produced film features Mark Wahlnerg befriending an injured stray dog. (AFP/Z-1)
