Yesterday
-Variety
-Elliott Kalan boarded the project as writer, showrunner, and executive producer.

Good work on the timeline. I feel a bit easier about this project, but still i'd love to see anything from it. As these are two seperate projects is there any word if the movie will be released to theatres or are both projects just coming straight to Netflix? It would be kind of awesome to see a new GB film in less then a year.

No word yet on how the movie will release. Too early to say. Most likely a theatrical animated movie.

Minor bit but Sony Pictures Entertainment’s licensing VP Jamie Stevens mentions, "One of our most exciting ventures is our kids’ programming, punctuated by the upcoming second season return of the hit preschool series, ‘The Creature Cases,’ produced by Sony Pictures Television – Kids for Netflix, along with Season 2 of ‘Goosebumps’ on Disney+ and an upcoming ‘Ghostbusters’ animated series, which is being produced by Sony Pictures Animation for Netflix.”

Comment on the series from Gil Kenan, "And I've spoken recently about the fact that we are in very active development on our animated series that we're producing with Netflix. That is something that I'm actively involved with, Jason on a day-to-day basis right now, we are really excited about the stories that are starting to be told there, and the way that it intersects with the Ghostbusters stories that you and I love is going to be thrilling for our audiences."

It's cool that the new generation is going to get a nice animated series, but selfishly I was hoping for a more adult show similar to Lower Decks, even more so now that that's ending this year.

Based on those comments I have a feeling that it's going to be targeted towards the teenage audiance which means it might be the Ghostbusters in highscool/college, or take place between Afterlife and Frozen Empire. I'm betting it's going to be something like Camp Cretacious or Fast and Furious.

If they go the highschool/college route it's going to be interesting to see what the Ghostbusters call themselves and how they'll just throw in Winston as they only met him after starting Ghostbusters Inc. Still though, I'd like to some conept art. Anything at all to prove progress.
