The first official trailer for Jason Reitman's Ghostbusters: Afterlife is online now and you can watch it above, complete with Paul Rudd as an endearing and enthusiastic teacher.

In the promo, the central family of Mckenna Grace, Finn Wolfhard and Carrie Coon move to a small town and discover some old Ghostbuster artefacts that will be familiar to fans.

And it might not be the tone you're expecting either...

While we were waiting for the trailer to arrive, the film released an official poster, which naturally features The Ectomobile. The trailer gives us an even more in-depth look at the vehicle.

Lined up as the third film in the original series – yes, this one has nothing to do with Paul Feig's all-female reboot – Ghostbusters: Afterlife will see the return of original cast members Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd, Ernie Hudson, Sigourney Weaver and Annie Potts. However, these stars didn't feature in the first trailer.

It will be led, however, by the Captain Marvel's Mckenna Grace, Stranger Things' Finn Wolfhard and The Sinner's Carrie Coon. Ant-Man's Paul Rudd also stars as a teacher who serves as a bridge to the world of the original Ghostbusters movie.

Other cast members include Celeste O'Connor, Logan Kim, Bookeem Woodbine and Oliver Cooper.

Filming officially wrapped on the new project back in November, with director Jason Reitman marking the occasion by sharing a photo of himself with his father Ivan Reitman (who directed the original two movies) and cast members Carrie Coon, Finn Wolfhard, Mckenna Grace and Logan Kim.

"Wrapped!" he wrote. "68 days and still smiling."

Details about the film's plot are still under wraps, but with the trailer set to be released soon, it looks like we're about to gain a better idea of what it's all about. Ghosts, presumably.

Ghostbusters 3 (that's Ghostbusters: Afterlife) will be released on July 10 2020.
