Who is Ghostbusters 3 Gonna Call? Aziz Ansari?

New information that Columbia Pictures has their eye on comedian, Aziz Ansari, star of NBC's Parks and Recreations.

Sources close to the project have told me that Columbia Pictures is circling Aziz Ansari for the long, long, long gestured Ghostbusters 3. - courtesy of bloody-disgusting



Outside of Parks and Recreations Aziz has been stealing scenes with small , but hilarious roles in Get Him to the Greek and Funny People. The later, surprisingly not as funny as the title would have you believe. But Aziz had a few memorable scenes as the raunchy stand-up comedian named, Randy.

I would certainly like to see him become one of the ghostbusters. Which is a project that is still waiting for Bill Murray to sign off on. Bill actually is one of the owners of the rights, and he has to give the sequel the okay before anything can move forward. Obviously if the script isn't up to Bill's tastes then they shouldn't do it.

So far the speculation is that the third movie will center around Oscar, the fictional child of Bill and Sigourney Weaver's characters. He was possessed by a demon in a painting in the second installment of the franchise. But in the third he'll be all grown up and be leading a new younger generation of ghostbusters. They will of course need the help of all the original members of the team, so expect to see all your favorites from the first two films.

Better than just having the token-black guy as a ghostbuster. They could not keep Aziz quiet.

I wouldn't want to see this guy in Ghostbusters. Like way to many new comedian/actors he's just not funny, but lame IMO.

@MrEko
Apparently Murry has good reason, they got really screwed on GB2 and he doesn't want it to happen again.

@Tea & Naibiter
THANK YOU for the boobs guys! Most of us appreciate them.

@Shane
You really need to not come to this site if you don't like things here. Simple as that.

I know humor is subjective but screw it you guys who say Aziz isn't funny don't know comedy. I admit I comparartively only have minimal knowledge of comic books but believe when I say I am a bonafied comedy nerd. The man his hilarious.

Bill still hasn't read the script. He's just not interested.


Unfortunately, I think they should just let it go. A little too late.

The man might be funny but from what I've seen, he can't act his way out of a wet paper bag.
Wooden and awful is how I'd describe his acting.

Better him than jack black. Still, wouldn't like him as a ghostbuster.

this movie wont be made anytime soon, it keeps getting brought up every 2 months with different casting rummers then is unheard of again for another 2 months. I wish I could see another ghostbusters movie but until it goes into filming, i wont believe it.
