‘Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire’ Star Annie Potts Gets A Promotion For The New Sequel

Annie Potts has been an official Ghostbuster since the beginning, but she’s helped fight the good fight by managing the office and keeping everything running behind the scenes. With Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire coming out in a few months, Annie Potts will be back to play Janine Melnitz one more time. The only difference is that this time she’ll be on the front lines. Here’s what she had to say to Empireonoline about her promotion to actual buster of ghosts:

“It’s a desperate situation, so it’s all hands on deck. It turns out Janine is quite capable – as most women tend to be when given the chance.” As for how this came about, it turns out Janine becoming a Ghostbuster wasn’t always the plan. “It came as a real surprise. We were weeks into shooting and Gil [Kenan, director] came up to me and said, ‘We think it’s time. We’re gonna have you suit up.'”

“I have to say I did [get a kick out of it]. Janine has served long and well, and I felt like she was finally getting her stripes, you know?” Potts continued. “She’s clearly stayed in touch with the guys [between Ghostbusters II and Frozen Empire], and she’s really been the keeper of the flame at the Firehouse.”

“The Ghostbusters are kind of superheroes, so it’s very nice to finally be seen in that way, too.”

Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire busts into theaters on March 22, 2024
