Ghostbusters 3 Filming This Fall?

Source:  MovieWeb.com
In a recent chat with actor Dan Aykroyd, The Boston Globe got the actor to talk about the status of Ghostbusters 3:

I'm sure you get these questions a lot, so I apologize in advance...Ghostbusters 3? I've heard that the writers of The Office are currently penning a script? How is this coming along, and should we look forward to this movie seeing the light of day?

Dan Aykroyd: Script is commenced early summer. Hope to be in production by late fall 2009


We reported in September that Dan Aykroyd, Ivan Reitman and Harold Ramis are consulting at this point, and according to Dan, Bill Murray is willing to be involved on some level. The concept is that the old Ghostbusters would appear in the film in some mentor capacity.

Stay tuned for more details on the upcoming production of the sequel.

It's not like we haven't discussed this a billion times, they will most likely be all on board. Like cameos in their own movie until the "new" Ghostbusters are ready to go out and kick some ass

If they are going to make another one they better have the original cast in the film.
I hate it when sequels take out the original characters. If an actor isn't on board for it, don't make the damn movie.

Great news. I loved the first one. The second one wasn't all that great. It seemed like they were too much into special effects. Everyone else is making a comeback, why not these guys. I hope this isn't thrown into development hell.
