Bringing you the best in Horror Movie News, and all things Horror.

Now that the new GHOSTBUSTERS film has been cooking up for a while, there have been quite a few develpments thus far. Reitman's upcoming sequel is set to debut next summer.

Bill Murray is a name that many have been curious about having involvement. It has been widely assumed that he would be back with other returning actors and actresses, but nothing was confirmed.

On a recent episode of The Greg Hill Show the Bill Murray wondering was officially put to rest. Dan Aykroyd made an appearance on the podcast to discuss his long career.

While talking about the new Ghostbusters film, Aykroyd mentioned Murray as one of the stars who recently finished filming their parts saying:

"Jason Reitman wrote a beautiful, heartfelt script that takes the real DNA from the first two movies and transfers that directly to the third, the next generation. It hands the legacy off to a new generation of stars, and players, and actors, and characters. And we’ve shot our part, so Murray, Sigourney, and Annie Potts, and it was really exciting working on this new idea a new take on the story which Jason — who’s a really incredible and fine filmmaker — came up with. So I’m pretty excited."

The confirmed cast of the new Ghostbusters film includes Finn Wolfhard (Stranger Things, Stephen King's It), Mckenna Grace (The Haunting of Hill House, Annabelle Comes Home, Captain Marvel), and Carrie Coon (The Leftovers, Fargo, Gone Girl). The trio make up the core family unit of the story, which is said to follow a single mother and her children with some kind of mysterious ties to the GHOSTBUSTERS of old. Exactly how they will come into play remains a mystery.

Early reports revealed that Sigourney Weaver will be returning to reprise her role of Dana Barrett, with a follow-up confirmation indicating that more of the original stars would also be back, including Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd, and Ernie Hudson. Annie Potts has even said that she is expecting to make a return of her own. The film also recently added Paul Rudd (Ant-Man, Avengers: Endgame) along with young newcomers Celeste O’Connor and Logan Kim.

The new GHOSTBUSTERS sequel is written by Gil Kenan and Jason Reitman, with the latter also directing, and will hit theaters next summer on July 10th, 2020.
