If you saw it, then you know the original cast was in it too. Sequels often incorporate new characters.
Alternate universe where the OG cast have different names/jobs
shareThis is a reboot with new characters, for instance Bill Murray made a cameo but not as Peter Venkman , Burk is correct, the sequels had the original cast as there original character's , This movie had new characters thus reboot.
shareso why would a ghostbusters movie have the same actors from another ghostbusters movie?
then another ghostbusters movie had the same actors from ghostbusters 2 but that movie isnt called a reboot. even though there are new ghostbusters in it. the other ghostbusters show up as cameos as the movie was not about them but the new ghostbusters.
There called cameos, and the characters arent in ghostbusters 2016 just the cameo apperance from the actors, hence why its a reboot.
shareits the original cast so therefore is a sequel. also it floopped
shareNope as confirmed here , see the word REBOOT, you are wrong to take the L
Ghostbusters 2016 - Sony Pictures decided to reboot the series instead. Some of the original film's cast members and their family members make cameo appearances in new roles, and Ramis is commemorated in the film's closing credits. The announcement of the female-led cast in 2015 drew a polarized response from the public and an internet backlash,[7] leading to the film's IMDb page and associated YouTube videos receiving low ratings before the film's release.[8][9]
