Director Ivan Reitman ha confirmed plans to direct Ghostbusters 3. The filmmaker says that he will be helming the second Ghostbusters sequel, which he hopes will go into production later this year. Reitman, as you may know, directed both of the original 1980s Ghostbusters films.
Ghostbusters 3, which is expected to see a younger generation taking over for the cast of the 1984 original, will hopefully “start shooting in this next year,” with a 2011 release likely, an excited Reitman told MTV News on Wednesday.
Reitman’s last effort behind the camera was 2006’s My Super Ex-Girlfriend, starring Uma Thurman and Luke Wilson.
No castings have been revealed yet.
