Check this out in the video below! Ernie says he’s doing a photo shoot in Toronto this saturday with [Bill Murray](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/people/bill-murray), [Dan Aykroyd](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/people/dan-aykroyd), and [Sigourney Weaver](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/people/sigourney-weaver). Sounds cool.

I’ve honestly found [Ivan Reitman](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/people/ivan-reitman) statements this week very interesting. He ventured into different interviews that Sony is currently in discussions with [Paul Feig](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/people/paul-feig) that it’s looking pretty good. But that being said I’m very excited about this photo shoot I’ve always wanted to see a reunion piece of some sort just sucks that Harold won’t be there. ---

Kind of like what they are doing with Star Wars EP7. I understand the appeal of no-names, but lets face it, nobody in Ghostbusters was a “no name” when that movie came out. In addition to SNL, Dan Akyroyd had already written and starred in “Blues Brothers,” and [Bill Murray](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/people/bill-murray) had done “Meatballs,” “Stripes,” and “Caddy Shack.” [Harold Ramis](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/people/harold-ramis) had written “Animal House” written and starred in “Stripes,” and written and directed “Caddy Shack.” All of these were hit movies that made a lot of money, but all of them were R-rated comedies aimed at adults. Ghostbusters was different, because it was PG, and it was aimed at a more general kind of summer action/comedy audience. It took these people who were already hugely successful within their genre and made them blockbuster superstars. So nice as it is to SAY we want unknown talent to star in GB3, it’s more reasonable to expect people with established resumes in comedy to show up. They’re not going to trust a franchise this major to anyone unproven. And still, nobody has suggested ALL the new Ghostbusters would be female. Bill Murray was just asked to name some actresses he’d like to see as Ghostbusters, and he did. The team is going to be bigger then two people. By the way, I’m now personally convinced that Bill Murray making a movie with Melissa McCartney is a driving force behind this whole Paul Fieg Ghostbuster thing. He must have been impressed with her. Maybe they had a conversation about it. [Next page](https://forum.gbfans.com/t/ghostbusters-reunion-this-saturday-so-says-ernie-hudson/4947.md?page=2)
