Yeah yeah, I know. There are so many GHOSTBUSTERS III rumors going around, most of which are caused by things said by the principal cast of the series. What can you really believe at this point? Regardless, the fan boy inside of me insisted that I share this bit of news.
This time, it was Harold Ramis who had something to say about the (hopefully) upcoming film. Check out what he had to share after the jump!
“Something’s going to happen. Dan [Aykroyd] did write a spec GB3 screenplay a few years ago, but no one was motivated to pursue it. Now, 25 years after the original, there seems to be some willingness to proceed and apparently a substantial public appetite for a sequel. We’ll introduce some new young Ghostbusters, and all the old guys will be in it, too. Think Christopher Lloyd in Back to the Future … GB3 is progressing with plans to shoot next summer and release in 2011.”
Well, I hope you’re right, Mr. Ramis. I’ve only been imagining this sequel since I repeatedly watched GHOSTBUSTERS II as a kid on VHS (I remember the pan and scan headaches like they were yesterday). I hope they add Oscar (the son of Sigourney Weaver’s character in the second film) in as a young Ghostbuster. Wouldn’t it be fantastic if they revitalize the franchise?
We’ll let you know if we hear anything more about this news, or any other GHOSTBUSTER III news. For now, let’s take this one with a grain of salt, though.
