Dan Aykroyd (Raymond Stantz in "Ghost Busters") spoke up about the upcoming "Ghost Busters" video game and the possibility of the third movie in the franchise.
When asked by Go Nintendo how the new game will help development of a third film Aykroyd said that he saw this new game as the third film and if it helped get an actual movie off the ground then all the better. He said:
“I’d want to see the third movie made. I think (the video game) is the third movie and if everything is creative and right, and this game helps get the third movie made… We have a good concept there; (we have) the young writers from The Office. I’ve worked with Harold (Ramis)on 'Year One,' which is coming out. The Book of Genesis adapted into a comedy? Who but Harold Ramis could pull that off! So these two writers - (Lee) Eisenberg and (Gene) Stupnitsky - they sound like a vaudeville team or a law firm - are brilliant young guys. And they come up with a good story.”
When speaking to CHUD, the actor went into more detail about the film and Sigourney Weaver’s involvement - in the new game she is replaced by Alyssa Milano. Aykroyd had this to say:
“When we do the 'Ghostbusters 3' movie, hopefully, Sigourney will be in, I know. We’ll make that happen. There’ll be a whole new generation that has to be trained. And that whole new generation will be led by an individual that you’ll all love when you hear who it is, but I’m not going to tell you now. There will be lots of cadets, boys and girls, who’ll be learning how to use the cyclotron, the accelerators, and the new stuff. The nuon splitter, the inter-planary interceptor, all these great tools they’re going to have to flip from dimension to dimension. Anyway. Game number two, maybe.“
And that is the latest news. I'm sure the game will be lots of fun since it was written by the original team of the movies and has the entire cast back. Will it be considered the third movie or will a real third movie be made will have to be seen as more time goes by.
More news to come! Catch ya' later!
