Back in the 80s, Ivan Reitman Produced and Directed both the 1984 original Ghostbusters movie and it’s 1989 sequel. It has now been confirmed that he will be directing the long awaited Ghostbusters 3.
During a recent red carpet event, an MTV correspondent asked Reitman, if he would be returning to direct Ghostbusters 3, for which he simple answered “Yes”.
According to the Director, the script is in and the second draft is currently in the works. “They have delivered a draft. We are working our way through another draft… good work is being done and all of us have our fingers crossed.”
So far the original filmmakers and some of the original cast members are involved, but the focus of this film will be on a new cast of Ghostbusters.
Shooting is scheduled to start this year (presumably in NYC), with a planned movie release in 2011.
