The ongoing drama with the Ghostbusters 3 seems to be never ending, which is causing fans to become irritated with the constant back and forth between actors and director. Having said that, most of us are willing to sit back and let it happen as it would not be the same without the involvement of its biggest player.



Digital Spy was able to sit down with Ivan Reitman, the man behind Ghostbusters 3, who gave a few updates on Bill Murray's status as well as the potential involvement of younger Hollywood actors. The biggest news is that Murray has seen the latest script.

"He's seen it and we're waiting to hear," Reitman said.

"He's seen the cover of it!" interjected the filmmaker's No Strings Attached star Asthon Kutcher.

"Thank you for putting that so well," Reitman added. "Fingers crossed!"

Asked if Kutcher could star as one of the new generation of Ghostbusters in the proposed movie, Reitman said that the idea was "absolutely possible".
"

If you'll remember, Bill Murray has been quite vocal about some of the previous scripts that he read, basically calling them garbage. I, along with most of you I'm sure, would hate to see this project move forward with out Murray. I'm not too big on the idea of Ashton Kutcher in volved, but the addition of younger actors could be entertaining.

I only want this movie to be made if it is the best possible movie that they can produce, not just some film that will spawn cartoons and toys.

A reboot? How about do the sequel right, or not at all.

Yeah, it's gotta have Peter, Ray, Egon, Winston and Janine. Cameos from Dana(Weaver) and Lewis(Moranis) welcome.

This film can't get made without Murray signing off. If they're going to train younger ghostbusters, they should go with Jonah Hill, James Franco and the likes..

Come on! There's a thousand other guys who should be Ghostbusters before Kutcher gets a chance to put his taint all over it. The dude is NOT funny! He's not a good actpr and I can't understand why he's so popular. He sucks!

Reitman, I swear to Christ if you put him in Ghostbusters, I will not be a happy camper. Not a happy camper indeed.

I don't mind if they bring in new actors anymore, as long as they use the Ghostbusters In Hell script.

i love Bill Murray but he seems to be a major douchebag. i could see some of the new funny guys in that movie, like Seth Rogen and Jonah Hill
Luther
Luther - 2/21/2011, 2:57 PM
yeeeaahh, please no Kutcher in a protonpack.
I DO see James Franco, Jonah Hill, Charlene Yi, Bill Hader, Andy Sandberg (keep in mind most were SNL alumni), Ellen Page, Jason Segel, Aziz Ansari, and maybe Jason Schwartzman OR (cause not both of them together...they remind me of each other too much haha) Justin Long. Anyone but Kutcher, Ryan Reynolds, Timberlake, (as much as I enjoy him onscreen) Seth Rogan (too expected), Michael Cera (also too expected, but great though), and Megan Fox.

HONESTLY THOUGH, I'D RATHER SEE THE ORIGINAL GHOST BUSTERS PLAY A PART IN THE MOVIE BUT START IT FRESH AGAIN..ROBERT DOWNEY JUNIOR TO PLAY VENKMAN(MURRAY), JACK BLACK TO PLAY STANTZ(AKROYD), ADRIEN BRODY TO PLAY EGON(HAROLD RAMIS)

Please anyone but that douche as a ghostbuster. I wouldn't see the movie then.

Ashton isn't a bad actor, clearly none of you watched The Guardian or the Butterfly Effect, his best movies so far.

I wish they'd use 80's cameras... but I know that'll never happen... it'll probably be in 3D or some crap.

KingGhost519 - 2/21/2011, 4:21 PM
If Ashton Kutcher is Michael Kelso funny, then I'm all for it. Adam Samberg and Bill Hader for sure.

Read it now, Bill! Stop what you're doing, take the day off, go to a park, sit on a bench and read the damn thing.

If Bill Murray says a script is garbage, then by God it's garbage. GB3 needs him to be a part of it.

Ashton Kutcher? cmon... get some talent like Vince Vaughn or Bradley Cooper to be the new Venkman.

Shut it Ralph. You're talking out your arse and you know it.

If Bill Murray can appear in Zombieland of all movies then he has no reason not to do GB3.

Intruder, The Guardian stars Kevin Costner and Ashton, and it's very good. No joke.

Think it in a good way guys. Maybe he could be Bill Murray's son in Ghostbusters 3. He could also be a stoner.
