There is no doubt that the biggest story last week was that Columbia Pictures was officially bringing Ghostbusters back for a third installment. But the question remained whether Harold Ramis, Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd and Ernie Hudson would actually come back for Ghostbusters 3 and what new blood would be involved? Well maybe Harold Ramis himself can shed some light on things. Harold Ramis emailed Chicago Tribune’s Mark Caro about the status of Ghostbusters 3:
"yes, columbia is developing a script for GB3 with my year one writing partners, gene stupnitsky and lee eisenberg. judd apatow is co-producing year one and has made several other films for sony, so of course the studio is hoping to tap into some of the same acting talent. aykroyd, ivan reitman and i are consulting at this point, and according to dan, bill murray is willing to be involved on some level. he did record his dialogue for the new ghostbusters video game, as did danny and i, and ernie hudson. the concept is that the old ghostbusters would appear in the film in some mentor capacity. not much else to say at this point. everyone is confident a decent script can be written and i guess we'll take it from there. best, harold"
So that's pretty damn cool, an email from Ramis giving a nice update - Who do you think should be the new Ghostbusters? Do you think Bill Murray will come back? Does this sound like a good idea for a third Ghostbusters film?
