Columbia pictures is now getting serious on bringing the Ghostbusters back to the big screen. My guess is that they finally decided to start work on a new film after the video game of the franchise is being made.

Columbia has signed Lee Eisenberg and Gene Stupnitsky to write the script for the new “Ghostbusters” film. They are the producers of “The Office” TV series. Columbia says Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd, Harold Ramis, and Ernie Hudson could return as their original characters but it is said that the film will pass the torch to new ghost chasers.

Columbia is keeping plot ideas underwraps and keeping quiet whether or not this is a third film of the “Ghostbusters” movie franchise to make it a full trilogy.

The studios tried to greenlight a 3rd Ghostbusters before but it was difficult to do financially, they said it was impossible for the studio to make money off a third installment, now they say it is not an issue. They allow no more than 25% of first dollar gross out the door. Meaning that this is now good news of a possibility of a third film being made.

So does this mean that Peter, Ray, Winston and Egon will be training and teaching new Ghostbusters for the next film? Sounds like it to me. As long as the original actors are still in the movie whether they get a big role or not, I’ll go see it. Look like they’ll be training younger Ghostbusters and that sounds like the plot that Columbia is going for.

I hope this is a Ghostbusters 3 and hope Columbia still have Bill, Dan, Harold and Ernie star in it. I bet the new video game helped keep the Ghostbusters movie going forward.
