- GHOSTBUSTERS 3
The much-anticipated Ghostbusters 3 is getting closer and
closer to becoming a reality. Leading man Dan Aykroyd spoke recently on
"Larry K

"It's based on new research that's being done in
particle physics by the young men and women at Columbia University," he
tells King. "...Basically, there's research being done that I can say that
the world or the dimension that we live in, our four planes of existence,
length, height, width and time, become threatened by some of the research
that's being done. Ghostbusters -- new Ghostbusters -- have to come and solve
the problem."
Unfortunately, it's looking quite likely that Bill Murray
will not reprise his role as Peter Venkman in any way, shape or form, although
Aykroyd is still optimistic for a last-minute change of heart.
"There will be a hole for him," Aykroyd says of
his friend and co-star. "If Billy wants to walk in the door and be in the
movie, we will find a place."
As previously revealed, Ghostbusters 3 will include a new
team of younger Ghostbusters, all of which begin as Columbia University
students. Although casting has not yet taken place, Aykroyd did confirm the
return of one new actor from the original: Larry King will again play himself.
"Of course, we're going to be doing you in your new
format as you comment on what's happening in Manhattan up there at Morningside
Heights," Aykroyd tells King. "It's going to be quite a spectacular
scene once the stuff starts to break."
Ivan Reitman is slated to direct Ghostbusters 3 with a
script from Gene Stupnitsky, Lee Eisenberg and Etan Cohen. A release date has
not yet been determined, but it has been rumored for 2014, the 30th anniversary
of the original.
