Browsing: Jason Reitman

It would appear that filming kicked off today (or at least this week) for SONY’s upcoming “Ghostbusters” film from writer/director Jason Reitman, son of original “Ghostbusters” director Ivan Reitman. “Stranger Things” star Finn Wolfhard posted this image to his Instagram, showing Ivan Reitman, Carrie Coon (“Fargo”), McKenna Grace (“Captain Marvel”), Wolfhard, and Jason Reitman along […]

Original Ghostbusters star Dan Aykroyd has some things to say (over martinis) about the 2016 female-fronted entry in the franchise. He served as producer on Paul Feig’s take, and says he should have blamed himself for the soaring costs of the production. While chatting with Canadian outlet 660CityNews, the legendary Saturday Night Live alum and comedy great expounded […]

We do know that Fargo’s Carrie Coon and Stranger Things’s Finn Wolfhard have reportedly closed the deal to join Jason Reitman’s Ghostbusters 3 film for Sony, and production was supposedly set to start in the next two months. Discussing Film (yeah, we know) says that production start has been pushed back- only by a few months- to July 12th in […]

Oscar nominee Melissa McCarthy has finally commented on the upcoming reboot Ghostbusters 3 film from Sony and writer/director Jason Reitman. This reboot will reportedly NOT include any of the ladies from the 2016 female-fronted Ghostbusters film which McCarthy starred in along with Kristen Wiig, Leslie Jones, and Kate McKinnon. McCarthy, who was nominated in the leading actress category at last night’s 91st […]

Good for Jason Reitman, we guess, attempting to clarify his comments about wanting to “hand the movie back to fans” regarding his Ghostbusters 3 project at Sony, which will theoretically completely ignore the 2016 all-female version. Considering how heated Ghostbusters Gate got when the initial 2016 film was announced, it seemed like Reitman (who’s father Ivan Reitman directed […]

Every so often, a filmmaker makes a comment that maybe they didn’t think out entirely before uttering it, like the newest statements from director Jason Reitman who will be tackling Ghostbusters 3 for Sony. Jason is the son of Ghostbusters, Ghostbusters 2 director Ivan Reitman, and the self-professed “first Ghostbusters fan”. In a recent stop by the Bill Burr podcast, Jason […]

Who knew that the Ghostbusters fandom was more alive and well in 2019 than it was 30 years ago? (This is a rhetorical question, we are highly aware of just how big the fandom is, thankyouverymuch) When Sony announced they were moving forward with a Ghostbusters 3 film, the news was met with mixed emotions. We […]

Paul Feig, director of 2016’s all-female Ghostbusters film, has finally weighed in on the current hot topic item- Ghostbusters 3, and Leslie Jones’ angry reactionary tweet. After all the ectoplasm vitriol lobbed towards the cast and crew of the 2016 Ghostbusters film, we didn’t really think Jones’ strongly worded tweet needed an explanation. But judging by the sheer amount of tweets […]

We were partially hoping the ectoplasm venom of Ghostbusters-gate was behind us after the release and ultimate panning of Paul Feig’s 2016 all-female reboot. It doesn’t really matter what you think of that particular film in this instance, just remember everyone involved with it is a PERSON, and worthy of respect. Obviously, several of you [yes, even […]

Last night, we were delighted to report that another Ghostbusters film is in the works, with heavy ties to the original pair of films. Namely, Ghostbusters and Ghostbusters 2 director Ivan Reitman’s son Jason Reitman is stepping in to write and direct. Cut to this morning, when a “teaser” in the truest sense of the word, has been released for the film: Our […]
