Jason Reitman Teases Ghostbusters Sequel With Familiar Location
Not even a year after the release of Ghostbusters: Afterlife, it appears we may already get our next nostalgic installment of the timeless franchise. Director Jason Reitman just gave a glimpse of what could potentially be the next nostalgic callback when the sequel to the franchise's latest movie comes out.
Reitman'sGhostbusters: Afterlife relied heavily on nostalgia, right up to the inclusion of the original Ghostbusters cast towards the end of the film. However, the iconic Ghostbusters firehouse from the 1984 classic wasn't included, and neither was New York City for that matter. At least not until the ending and one of the post-credits scenes.

On theGhostbusters Official Twitter page, Reitman referenced that the last time viewers saw the trademark Ghostbusters car (ECTO-1), it was while they were driving back into Manhattan, which is known as the residence of the Ghostbusters. He then unveiled where exactly the Ghostbusters headquarters in Manhattan was, which, for any diehard fan who's watched all the movies knows, is the firehouse. The Tweet reads, “The last time we saw Ecto-1, it was driving back into Manhattan: the home of Ghostbusters. That’s where our story begins. The code name is FIREHOUSE.” We then see a picture of the firehouse with the word «FIREHOUSE» plastered on the image, thus seemingly indicating that fans will see one of the most iconic features of the Ghostbusters franchise return in its next installment.
It doesn't count for much as far as what the next movie is going to be about, but it counts for something because the franchise is bringing something else back that the fans treasure and ultimately look forward to seeing again.
