The entire cast of “Ghostbusters” is allegedly onboard for “Ghostbusters 3” including Rick Moranis and Ernie Hudson, but as CHUD wisely and cautiously notes, nothing is set in stone yet because no script has been completed.
With that said, is Sigourney Weaver coming back? She’s been the one name missing from the “entire cast” conversation so far, but at a recent press junket with Dan Aykroyd that CHUD attended about the “Ghostbusters” videogame, the star said she “hopefully” will return.
“And when we do the Ghostbusters 3 movie, hopefully, Sigourney will be in, I know. We’ll make that happen,” he said optimistically.
Aykroyd went on to explain the video game. Perhaps they’ll be some clues in there as to what the plot for ‘G3’ will be? The whole, “new generation” idea has basically already been confirmed by Harold Ramis, so perhaps the storyline will take cues from the game.
“There’ll be a whole new generation that has to be trained. And that whole new generation will be led by an individual that you’ll all love when you hear who it is, but I’m not going to tell you now. There will be lots of cadets, boys and girls, who’ll be learning how to use the cyclotron, the accelerators, and the new stuff. The nuon splitter, the inter-planetary interceptor, all these great tools they’re going to have to flip from dimension to dimension. Anyway. Game number two, maybe. “
With “Ghostbusters 3” reportedly not arriving until sometime in 2011, any attempts to pin-down the idea however seem speculative at best.
