Will There Ever Be A Ghostbusters 3?

Will There Ever Be A Ghostbusters 3?

Over the past few years, rumblings of another Ghostbusters movie have gotten a lot louder. After having been in development hell for so long, no one really imagined it could ever really happen, what with how many years have already passed since Ghostbusters 2, but now it seemed like a real possibility. Almost everyone from the original cast was back on board to reprise their roles, and even Rick Moranis, who is retired from acting, agreed to come back to play Louis Tully. So what happened, you might wonder? Why have we not seen this film yet? One reason, and one reason only: Bill Murray.

Bill Murray does not believe that today’s modern movie-going public wants to see, and I quote, “old men running around in jumpsuits chasing ghosts”. Bill Murray believes he holds all the cards when it comes to making this film, and unfortunately for us, he’s right. Several times, Harold Ramis and Dan Aykroyd have reached out to Murray in an effort to get him to do the movie, but after leading them on, he rejected them every time. There are even rumors that it is causing a massive strain in their personal relationships with each other, and Murray has even teased that he would come back to do it if his character were a ghost. While everyone else involved thought it would be a good idea, and while the massive amounts of fans out there would love to see it for themselves as well as see it introduced to a new generation, it all seems to hinge on Bill Murray’s decision to return as Peter Venkmann, which does not appear to be happening.

So are we doomed to never see a Ghostbusters 3? My guess is that yes, we are doomed to that, because Bill Murray will not budge on his position, and while the rest of the cast is ready to go ahead without Murray’s involvement, the studio does not appear to be. And therefore, while we won’t see a Ghostbusters 3, at least you can use the power of your imagination with our awesome selection of Ghostbusters costumes. Check out what we have in stock.
