‘Ghostbusters 3’ Gets A New Writing Staff

Recently Bill Murray appeared on Letterman stating that he would be open to making a third ‘Ghostbusters’ but he didn’t feel that the scripts so far were right. Murray stated “You know, you just gotta have a really good script. It’s hard. Even the second ‘Ghostbusters’ wasn’t as much fun for me as the first one. It’s hard to make a sequel. It’s gotta be really funny, and that first one was just so darn funny.” And it looks like Dan Akroyd was listening and is working hard to make it happen.

The last writers to work on the script were Lee Eisenberg and Gene Stupnitsky. This team brought us the great ‘Year One’ and ‘Bad Teacher’. Okay no more sarcasm from this point on.

During a recent interview at an WNY event Akroyd stated “We’ve got a new writing staff working on it now. It’s got to be prefect. That’s the whole thing. There’s no point in doing it unless it’s perfect. So that’s what we’re up to now.”

This project has been in talks for quite some time now. Do you think we will ever see it go into production? Or will one of the cast be ghosts by the time it comes around?
