Ramis Confirms Ghostbusters 3 & Gives Details

We have been following Ghostbusters 3 very closely the past couple days and I think the film is finally making some headway. Of course the big questions still remain to be answered. Is Judd Apatow really going to be involved and how involved is Bill Murray going to be made in the film? Well today Harold Ramis wrote into The Chicago Tribune about the project,

"yes, columbia is developing a script for GB3 with my year one writing partners, gene stupnitsky and lee eisenberg.  judd apatow is co-producing year one and has made several other films for sony, so of course the studio is hoping to tap into some of the same acting talent. aykroyd, ivan reitman and i are consulting at this point, and according to dan, bill murray is willing to be involved on some level.  he did record his dialogue for the new ghostbusters video game, as did danny and i, and ernie hudson.  the concept is that the old ghostbusters would appear in the film in some mentor capacity.  not much else to say at this point.  everyone is confident a decent script can be written and i guess we'll take it from there."

"Some metor capacity" has me concerned. I was always hoping this would be a return to glory for the old ghostbusters not a whole new team which is what this sounds like. It also appears though that we could see Seth Rogen, Jonah Hill, James Franco and Michael Cera all suit up as Ghostbusters.. which is also an entertaining thought. Only time will tell whether this project will happen or not. Hopefully we will find out soon. Keep it here for the latest.
