Sony Releasing Ghostbusters Steelbook With Rare Deleted Scenes
--------------------------------------------------------------
It's been 35 years since fans found out who they were gonna call.
In honor of the comedy's anniversary, Sony is releasing an
all-new steelbook for the original to Ghostbusters films packed
with brand-new special features including never-before-seen
deleted scenes, as announced by Slash Film.

The first film, which hit theaters June 1984, followed a group
of parapsychologists who start a ghost-catching business in New
York City. One thing leads to another and the group must fight
against an evil paranormal force seeking to bring about an
apocalypse. Starring Bill Murray (The Dead Don't Die), Dan
Aykroyd (Get On Up), Harold Ramis (Stripes), Ernie Hudson
(Nappily Ever After), Rick Moranis (Spaceballs), and Sigourney
Weaver (Avatar), the film was written by Aykroyd and Ramis and
directed by Ivan Reitman (Draft Day). Ghostbusters became a
runaway success, earning rave reviews from critics and audiences
and grossing nearly $300 million worldwide on a $30 million
budget.

It went on to spawn another financially successful but
critically disappointing 1989 sequel, a large number of video
games, three animated series, and a 2016 all-female reboot that
was generally well-received by critics, but received mixed
reviews from audiences and was considered a box office bomb.
A third film, co-written and directed by Reitman's son Jason,
tied back to the original two films is currently set to begin
production in June starring McKenna Grace (Captain Marvel),
Finn Wolfhard (Stranger Things) and Carrie Coon (Avengers:
Infinity War).

The new 4K Blu-Ray release, which is hitting shelves June 11,
will contain both films in a steelbook case and feature both
rare and new special features not seen on previous home media
releases, including never-before-seen deleted scenes and a
commentary track for Ghostbusters II. The full list of special
