Ghostbusters: Afterlife has been playing in theaters for a few weeks now (you can check out our review here), so special make-up and creature designer Arjen Tuiten has taken to Instagram to share a behind-the-scenes look at one of the movie's best-kept secrets.

The 1984 classic's big bad, Gozer The Gozerian, aka The Destructor, aka The Traveller, aka Volguus Zildrohar, returns to finish what they started towards the end of Afterlife. The genderless deity was played by Yugoslavian actress Slavitza Jovan in the first film, but Olivia Wilde (Tron: Legacy, A Vigilante) stepped into "flattop's" sparkly heels this time for a memorable extended cameo.

Though Gozer's return was pretty much spoiled in the most recent trailer, Wilde's involvement was a big surprise, and her name didn't even appear during the end credits.

In the post below, Tuiten reveals that the actress spend over 5 hours in the make-up chair to complete her transformation into Gozer. He's also given us a look at the villain's final look in a screenshot from the finished film.

It was a cool surprise to see her as Gozer, she definitely fits the part

Liv as Gozer can destroy me anytime...

santoanderson - 12/10/2021, 9:37 AM

I thought she looked great as Gozer, but I wish they had come up with an original third act with a new villain. Recycling Gozer and the terror dogs was the laziest part of the film IMHO.

When I watched the movie I didn't know that was Olivia Wilde.

Dotanuki - 12/10/2021, 9:39 AM

Well, now that I’ve seen this there really isn’t a need to waste time watching the movie.

Nice spoiler bro, thanks

I enjoyed Afterlife but Gozer was aweful, she wakes up and takes a seat, thats it. No plan no immediate thirst for destruction. Just pet they're dog and sit down. They needed to do something. I am assuming they is the correct pronoun for Gozer

marvel72 - 12/10/2021, 12:45 PM

Didn't know she was in it,I do now.

Model101 - 12/10/2021, 6:23 PM

Good film. Not on par with the 1st.

thewanderer - 12/11/2021, 6:59 PM

Let’s just put spoilers in the thumbnail.

I wish the movie had had anything original to offer whatsoever. Enjoyable enough but ultimately a pretty empty experience. That said, Gozer looked amazing.
