I don’t want to get too fired up about this leak so I’ll be leaving the proton pack in the closet. But the Ghostbusters 3 update came directly from Dan Aykroyd’s mouth. This is one of my all-time favorite comedies of the ’80s, which stars one of the best comedy casts since Stripes or The Blues Brothers.

While in Boston promoting the House of Blues, Aykroyd discussed the possibility of a third installment of Ghostbusters. Production is shooting for a Fall 2009 start date. The best part, original cast members Dan Aykroyd, Bill Murray, Harold Ramis and Ernie Hudson expressed interest but are waiting to see how the script develops. I’m keeping the old fingers crossed that they don’t try to do this with a “younger, hipper” cast. [aceshowbiz]
