Report: Ivan Reitman says “Ghostbusters 3” script is done and have been sent to Bill Murray!!!

Ivan Reitman, the director of the first two “Ghostbusters” films, announced that the “Ghostbusters 3” script is finally done and sent to Bill Murray to get his approval. Ivan says Bill haven’t read the script yet and says the script is good enough to get the film made.

The Associated Press, reports.

We all know how strict and picky Bill is with the next Ghostbusters film. Lets hope he’ll be happy with this script whenever he gets around to reading it. I think Bill Murray still looks really good in the Ghostbusters suit. Remember, he put the suit back on for the “Scream” awards last year. He looked pretty happy wearing the suit again, so there’s a possibility he might come back! Hope so, cross our fingers.

Cool Video: Bill Murray accepts Scream Award in a Ghostbusters suit!!! HOLY CRAP!

Bill Murray attended the Scream awards to pick up his award for Best Horror Film for the film, “Zombieland”, which he had a cameo in. Guess what folks? Bill Murray showed up on stage wearing a Ghostbusters suit! For a long time now, Bill Murray denied returning for “Ghostbusters 3” because he felt too old to be wearing a Ghostbusters suit again. Well, here is proof that he’s not that old and he still looks GREAT in the suit. Bill got a huge crowd reaction too. Come on, Bill! Please return for “Ghostbusters 3”. I think he would want to now after this.

Report: Ivan Reitman is still on for “Ghostbusters 3″…

This is why people shouldn’t believe everything they read online. Huge rumours spread the web that Ivan Reitman pulled out of “Ghostbusters 3” to do a romantic comedy film titled, “Friends with Benefits” instead. Well, Sony says that rumour is bullshit and Ivan Reitman is committed with “Ghostbusters 3” still.

More on it here:

That’s good. I can’t see no one directing “Ghostbusters” but Ivan Reitman. Ivan’s their only guy that can do these films, right. Even Harold Ramis and Jason Reitman can’t even touch Ivan’s style. It’s great news that Ghostbusters 3 is still happening and lets hope for a 2011 release date.

Edit to add: btw, “Ghostbusters 3” could do extremely well in the box office if made right, it could be just as big as “Avatar” and “The Dark Knight”, sure. I’m sure Ivan Reitman will be experimenting with the new CGI and 3D technology, most definitely.

Thought: The new Ghostbusters team should be this…

Since the next installment of Ghostbusters will focus on recruiting 4 young Ghostbusters to replace the originals, I wanted to name my choices of actors that should star in “Ghostbusters 3”.

Here are my choices:

  • Steve Carrell
  • Ben Stiller
  • Jack Black
  • Michelle Rodriguez or Megan Fox (tie)

There’s been reports that they are planning on adding a female Ghostbuster to the lineup. I think Steve Carrell would make a good version of a young Egon. Ben would make a good version of a young Ray. Jack would make a good version of a young Peter Venkman. The female Ghostbuster would probably end up being a love interest with one of them and she joins up with them.

According to AICN, look like “Ghostbusters 3” is heading into reality so it looks like it’s definitely happening.

Report: Ivan Reitman says he is down with doing “Ghostbusters 3” if the final script is worth doing…

MTV News spoke with “Ghostbusters” director, Ivan Reitman about possibly directing the third film. He says he is interested in returning as director for “G3” but only if he feels that the story is worth doing it. He is a very important director for the series since he did the first two, so he says he wouldn’t walk away from the third one at all.

Bill Murray came up with the idea of making females as Ghostbusters, Dan Aykroyd liked the idea and threw a couple of actresses in that he would like to see in it. Ivan Reitman replied to Bill and Dan’s idea, saying that he doesn’t know if the “Office” writers will go for the female Ghostbuster idea in the final script or not.

I’m sure “The Office” writers will make a final script to make Ivan happy enough to go back on board directing. I hope they do go for the female Ghostbuster idea as well. Being a Ghostbuster doesn’t always have to be a man’s job, right? Women can be quicker and smarter when hunting down the ghosts, so I can see why they want a female Ghostbuster.

Lets hope they make the 3rd one, similar to the first one. If they make it more like “Ghostbusters 2”, then I won’t be interested in it.

Report: Rick Moranis confirms he’s returning as Louis Tully in “Ghostbusters 3″…

Rick Moranis did not do the voice overs of Louis Tully for “Ghostbusters – The Video Game”, but Rick has agreed to reprise his role for “Ghostbusters 3” live action film. Harold Ramis confirmed the news that Rick finally agreed to come back to Ghostbusters.

Although he said the original cast is coming back, there is still no word on whether or not Sigourney Weaver is returning because this article said nothing about her.

I’m sure we’ll hear from Sigourney soon on whether she wants in or not.

Report: Harold Ramis speaks out about “Ghostbusters 3” film, it’s still moving forward…

Harold Ramis speaks to MTV News about “Ghostbusters 3” film. He says it’s still happening and all 4 original Ghostbusters: Harold Ramis, Dan Aykroyd, Bill Murray and Ernie Hudson are still down to reprising their roles. Ramis says there is no final script yet, there isn’t even a first draft yet, but he says they are still doing the idea of the original Ghostbusters passing the torch to a younger generation of Ghostbusters. So this means after “Ghostbusters 3”, there will probably be a whole new “Ghostbusters” trilogy but with the young cast, and not the original stars.

As long as they don’t have Rob Pattison or Zac Efron in “Ghostbusters 3”, then it’ll be good.

For the young Ghostbusters, they should just have an unknown cast, no big name stars to play the younger Ghostbusters. Having an unknown cast for the young Ghostbusters will make them big stars. They should take that idea but I doubt they will, they probably would go for big names.

Report: Dan Aykroyd says “Ghostbusters 3” might go in production this fall…

Dan Aykroyd said the script for “Ghostbusters 3” is finished, ready to go, and all he needs now is to wait for the studio to say, “Yes, go ahead and make the film”. In other words, he needs to wait for the greenlight now. Hopefully they’ll get a response in the summer, and once they get the greenlight, they’ll start filming “Ghostbusters 3” this fall.

Very nice! Glad the film is still moving forward. I’m also looking forward to the video game as well.

My question is, who will direct “Ghostbusters 3”? Ivan Reitman or Harold Ramis? Either one of them choices would be good for me.
