Ghostbusters: Afterlife receives PG-13 rating for “supernatural action and suggestive material”

February 18, 2021 by Liam Waddington

With the highly-anticipated Ghostbusters: Afterlife, the follow-up film to Ghostbusters and Ghostbusters II, currently scheduled to debut in theatres on November 11th, 2021, the film has received its age rating.

Similar to Paul Feig’s Ghostbusters: Answer the Call, the MPA has officially handed Jason Reitman’s Ghostbusters: Afterlife a PG-13 rating for “supernatural action and suggestive material.”

Although fans of the Ghostbusters franchise are going to have to wait slightly longer for the sequel following several delays as a result of the ongoing global health crisis, star Ernie Hudson, who is set to reprise his role as Winston Zeddemore, has previously claimed that Ghostbusters: Afterlife is the sequel “fans have been hoping for” and will completely tie into the first two Ghostbusters movies. While Ghostbusters star Annie Potts, who is set to return as Janine Melnitz, has promised that the sequel will be “worth the wait.”
