Following
the tragic loss of Harold Ramis last, it was announced that the
script for the third Ghostbusters was being rewritten. Now According
to Deadline Ivan Reitman is stepping down as the film's director and
will help the studio find a suitable replacement. The search should
be announced rather quickly as the studio is targeting to start
shooting in the Big Apple in early 2015.
The
plot is rumored to focus on a new team of Ghostbusters with cameos
from the original cast.
"[W]e
now have a draft that is very good," Reitman tells Deadline.
"That the studio is very excited about... It’s a version of
'Ghostbusters' that has the originals in a very minor role. When I
came back from Harold’s funeral, it was really moving and it made
me think about a lot of things. I’d just finished directing Draft
Day, which I’m really happy with and proud of. Working on a film
that is smaller and more dramatic was so much fun and satisfying. I
just finally met with Amy and Doug Belgrad when I got back. I said
I’d been thinking about it for weeks, that I’d rather just
produce this Ghostbusters. I told them I thought I could help but
let’s find a really good director and make it with him. So that’s
what we’ve agreed will happen."
