![]() ![]() Paul Feig, director and co-writer of the all-female Ghostbusters reboot attempt in 2016, congratulated Reitman and his team on the movie's success. Internationally, Afterlife brought in an additional $16 million for a global debut of $60 million. The film dominated the North American box office this past weekend (following more than a year of COVID-related delays) with $44 million in ticket sales. Ghostbusters: Afterlife is now playing in theaters everywhere. “I’ve done, sheesh, I don’t know, probably 250 credits or something, but working with Bill Murray and seeing him and Danny trying to come up with something, trying to fill the space, and then something really magical comes out of it.that’s unusual,” Hudson said. To see him just lurking around in that pack and putting up with it. ![]() And him sloping around in that pack, which he doesn’t like wearing any more than any of us, it’s just so funny. He’s one of those human beings that has that magnetism. “It was really fun to be back,” added Aykroyd, whose character gets a shot at redemption when he tells Gozer that yes, he is indeed a god. "It’s like Mick Jagger and Keith Richards have done their solo albums, but when they’re all on the stage, it’s a whole different thing." Murray credited the comedic lightning to his in-person reunion with Aykroyd and Hudson. “Danny and Ernie and I together, not in separate scenes, but together - there’s a force," he said on set. At one point, the actress reportedly broke out laughing and said: “You got me on that one. ***WARNING! THE FOLLOWING CONTAINS MAJOR SPOILERS FOR THE FILM!***Īccording to VF writer Anthony Breznican - who was actually present when the cameras rolled on the OG Ghostbusters - Olivia Wilde (who plays Gozer in this soft reboot) could not keep a straight face when Murray was hurling improvised insults and taunts at the Mesopotamian deity that wants to bring about the end of the world. In a new Vanity Fair article detailing the return of Bill Murray (Peter Venkman), Dan Aykroyd (Ray Stantz), and Ernie Hudson (Winston Zeddemore) in Jason Reitman's Ghostbusters: Afterlife, fans can enjoy a beat-for-beat breakdown of how the film's climactic showdown was filmed on a Canadian soundstage two years ago. It looks like Ghostbusters 3 is still a very long way off.A god of comedy is no match for a god of death. So we're no further ahead, and possibly moving backwards: still no official studio greenlight, and now, seemingly, a script in a state of turnaround. the guys are funny and I miss Rick Moranis and Annie Potts and Danny Aykroyd. Murray concedes in the interview that he's actually finding the whole saga "irritating" (so that's actually a small spanner right there), but does ultimately still seem tempted from a nostalgic angle: "Maybe it'd be fun to do. But, says Murray, "These guys that were supposedly the writers that were going to do it, they wrote a film that came out and people saw the film and went, 'We're not going to do it after all, are we?'" Hollywood is harsh. Year One and The Office (US) writers Lee Eisenberg and Gene Stupnitsky had been working on drafts of Ghostbusters 3 that seemed to be getting everyone's approval. That at least is the message coming from Bill Murray himself, who's been talking to Coming Soon on the Get Low press junket.Īccording to Dr Venkman, it seems part of the recent trouble afflicting the on/off, stop/start, are they/aren't they second sequel, is the under-performance of Year One, Harold Ramis' 2009 comedy disappointment. Don't believe all you hear about a recalcitrant Bill Murray throwing spanners around left right and centre in the works of Ghostbusters 3. ![]()
