Kris Pearn, director of Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs 2, is attached to helm the new Ghostbusters animated film, which could be a game-changer for the franchise if it matches the Spider-Verse films' $1.2 billion global haul.
In addition to the new animated film, a Ghostbusters animated series is also in development for Sony, with Jason Reitman and franchise co-creator Dan Aykroyd on board as executive producers, promising a similar tone to the recent Ghostbusters: Afterlife movie.
