Reitman is ‘aware of demand’ for ‘Ghostbusters 3′
According to digitalspy.co.uk, director Ivan Reitman is very aware that there is a demand for ‘Ghostbusters 3′. Apparently, both fansand the original members of the cast have expressed an interest in seeing the movie hit ths screen.
Also, it was the video game that got the interest going.
“Certainly, Sony has been all over us for about two decades now, trying to get this going,” Reitman told Sci Fi Wire at the Santa Barbara International Film Festival.
“We have this sort of very interesting deal in which we really control the forward progress of the movie. [Sony] did a very interesting thing. They actually hired these two writers on their own, without consulting us, and basically said, ‘We’re going to start.”
Reitman likes the script of writers Lee Eisenberg and Gene Stupnitsky: “[They are] very good writers, fortunately, and they wrote a first draft that was pretty good, considering that they didn’t really talk to us that much. And I’ve since then been working with them for the last four or five months, just trying to get more of the kind of spirit of the film into it.”
Reitman ended saying that there is no solid deal yet, and not even a finished script.
We’re not worried. Everyone wants this to happen.
