Oscar and Emmy-nominated writer, comedian and critically acclaimed actor, Kumail Nanjiani, makes his way into the `Ghostbuster` franchise with `Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire`. Playing the role of Nadeem, Kumail will be seen facing off with some of the ghosts in the popular franchise. 

To take out the threat, it turns out that only Nadeem has the right stuff, if he can focus on something useful for once in his life. The role is played by Kumail Nanjiani. “What`s great about Nadeem is that he really encompasses what makes Ghostbusters special,” he says. “He`s a slacker. He`s completely discounted by everyone around him. And he`s the only one who can tackle this big, terrifying demon who can scare people to death 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 can’t deny it. And then suddenly he has to defeat this massive demon.”
