Who You Gonna Call? Christopher Walken!
no images were found
You may have read over on Dread Central that a new Ghostbusters movie is in the works. Well today pause.com talked to a studio insider who not only relayed the same information, including that Steve Carell, Seth Rogan and Paul Rudd are indeed slated to co-star in the film with the original four Ghostbusters, but added that perpetually-unnerving Christopher Walken is going to play a central character…a sort of “evil Warren Buffett” (please, no redundancy jokes folks).
Bill Murray’s screen time, at least, is supposedly going to be a tad on the light side, as he’s agreed to a relatively brief shooting schedule.
No word on whether Annie Potts, Rick Moranis or William Atherton will make appearances, but we’re pretty sure Peter MacNicol won’t be back. Rumor has it he’s still drippings with goo.

I heard a rumor from an insider that this film will be called Ghostbusters: Absolute Nonsense starring Dane Cook and Rob Schneider

@daveb – I believe that’s actually the sequel to this sequel. Or I might be thinking of the one after that. Starring Carrot Top.
Kidding aside, and as with most sequels to great movies, if the script is good, I’m interested.

Thanks for the link…could be just a case of a star not wanting to out a project. Definitely seen that happen before.

Everyone knows that this is b.s. You should be ashamed of yourself for falling for this ridiculous rumor that’s been circulating since Anchorman came out. You can’t just run with a story because “somebody” said it was so. If I ever see you on the street, I will kick you and then “slime” you.

Well, “Paul”, I’m not sure if you’re reading these stories yourself or if you have somebody helping you, but maybe they left out the part where I wrote that it was somebody FROM SONY PICTURES who gave this info to us, directly, and not something we got from a 3rd party. If it’s a ridiculous rumor, it’s one the studio started.

but he’s someone involved with this movie or he’s a man that, cleaning roofs, has heard someone drinking a coffe and saying: “Gb3 will be cool with Rogen and Carrell in it”
August 8th, 2008 at 10:04 pm
Or neither…you have to remember that the studio that’s releasing a film and the company producing the film are often not the same company. Likewise, there are a zillion people (ok, that’s a slight exaggeration) involved in the production, distribution, promotion, advertising and marketing of a film. Roofers aside, that’s a lot of areas for people to work in who are in the know.

well…..i really really hope that this is true. 🙂

paul rudd debunked this rumor. another actor not letting out a project?

Again, just passing on what I was told by studio peeps. If they made it up, they made it up.

Awesome!!! Its about time the ghostbusters make a comeback . Oh and Its possible that it wont likely come out till 2010 because the {Upcoming GB} game is pushed back to 2009
