Ghostbusters 3 Screenplay to Get Another Rewrite Says Bill Murray

The legacy of Ghostbusters 3
should rest at hearsay and mumbled whispers of "maybe". Most people
here are too young to remember the June 16th, 1989 Friday night debut of
Ghostbusters 2.
It landed with a loud thud of disappointment. It was a bad movie. So
its understandable why those involved in its production wouldn't want to
move forward with Ghostbusters 3 anytime soon, especially star Bill Murray.


He is been the hold-up in getting this long-gestating sequel to the
screen, and most fans have to side with him at this point. Especially
when taking in another viewing of Ghostbusters 2
for old time's sake. Let's face facts: We just don't need this sequel!
And at this point, no true fan really cares if it ever gets made.

That doesn't stop the press from haranguing the comedic actor about it every chance they get. Bill Murray was on David Letterman this past week, were the subject came up yet once again. Murray seemed like he was being polite more than anything else while quickly touching on the subject.

This is what he told Letterman.



Letterman pressed the issue, which got Murray to admit that they are currently doing a rewrite.



It's likely that Bill Murray will be asked about Ghostbusters 3
until the day he dies, or until the day he decides to step in front of
the camera with a proton pack once again strapped to his back. Which one
seems more likely to you? Death or Venkman?

Ghostbusters 3 is in development and stars Sigourney Weaver, Anna Faris, Eliza Dushku, Dan Aykroyd, Harold Ramis, Annie Potts, Ernie Hudson. The film is directed by Ivan Reitman.
