Ghostbusters: Afterlife – Bill Murray reacts to the Mini Pufts clip

Last Updated on August 2, 2021

A couple weeks ago, Sony released a clip from director Jason Reitman's Ghostbusters: Afterlife that revealed this sequel to the original Ghostbusters (watch it HERE) and Ghostbusters II (watch that one HERE) is going to feature the return of the Stay Puft marshmallow man… sort of. Instead of a giant marshmallow man, this time around we're getting an army of tiny living marshmallows.

There seemed to be a mixed reaction to this clip. Some fans thought it was cute and fun, others thought it was a bit too ridiculous. But what does Ghostbusters star Bill Murray think of it? Jason Reitman's father Ivan Reitman, the director of the first two Ghostbusters movies, decided to show the clip to Murray and get his reaction to it. The video of Murray's reaction can be seen below.

Scripted by Jason Reitman and Gil Kenan, Ghostbusters: Afterlife stars Mckenna Grace, Finn Wolfhard, and Carrie Coon as a family 

with single mom Callie and her two kids, Trevor and Phoebe, who move into a beaten-down farmhouse in Oklahoma only to discover that there’s something strange in the neighborhood. Unexplained quakes shake the town. There’s an old mine nearby that bears the name of Ivo Shandor, who built the Manhattan high-rise in the 1984 film that channeled the forces of evil. 

Paul Rudd co-stars as a local teacher who’s been documenting the unexplained phenomena, befriending Callie and her kids, and helping make the connection between the current weirdness and the events of three decades before.

Murray is also in the cast, along with his Ghostbusters co-stars Dan Aykroyd, Ernie Hudson, Sigourney Weaver, and Annie Potts. Bokeem Woodbine, Tracy Letts, Celeste O'Connor, Logan Kim, and Oliver Cooper are in there as well.

Ghostbusters: Afterlife is scheduled to reach theatres on November 11.
