Janine’s promotion as an active Ghostbuster “came as a real surprise,” added Potts. She’s appeared in every Ghostbusters outing from the very beginning. “We were weeks into shooting and Gil came up to me and said, ‘We think it’s time… We’re gonna have you suit up.’”

“I have to say I did [get a kick out of it]. Janine has served long and well, and I felt like she was finally getting her stripes, you know? She’s clearly stayed in touch with the guys [between Ghostbusters II and Frozen Empire], and she’s really been the keeper of the flame at the Firehouse,” Potts mused. “The Ghostbusters are kind of superheroes, so it’s very nice to finally be seen in that way, too.”
