Critically acclaimed, Oscar and Emmy nominated writer, comedian and actor, Kumail Nanjiani, makes its way into the “Ghostbuster” franchise with “Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire.” Playing the role of Nadeem, Kumail will be seen facing off against some of the ghosts of the popular franchise.
To eliminate the threat, it turns out that only Nadeem has what it takes, if he can focus on something useful for once in his life. The role is played by Kumail Nanjiani. “The great thing about Nadeem is that he really encompasses what makes Ghostbusters special,” he says. “He is lazy. Everyone around him completely ignores him. And he is the only one who can face this big, scary demon who can scare people just by looking at them. That’s what I love: he’s a very grounded, normal character… some might call him a loser, and he doesn’t like it, but he can’t deny it. And suddenly he has to defeat this huge demon.”
