Which Other Original ‘Ghostbusters’ Star Has A Cameo In Paul Feig’s Reboot?
Production is currently underway in Boston, Massachusetts on the reboot ofGhostbustersfrom directorPaul Feig. The cast was recently spotted at a children’s hospital in full Ghostbusters gear,complete with new proton packsthat we hadn’t seen before.
And now news has surfaced of another intriguing bit of activity in Boston with one of the stars of the originalGhostbustersarriving to reportedly film a cameo in the movie. But we didn’t want to spoil it since it hasn’t been quite as widespread asDan Aykroydannouncing his cameo on Facebook. Find out more about theGhostbusterscameo after the jump, but don’t read any further if you don’t want to know who is involved!
ComingSoon.nethas gotten ahold of some photos that showBill Murrayarriving in Boston on August 6th, and then reportedly heading to the set of theGhostbustersreboot to shoot a cameo on August 7th.THRhas also confirmed that he will be appearing in the movie as well, so this is a sure thing.
Remember that this newGhostbustershas no ties to the original franchise as far as the narrative is concerned. Therefore when we see Dan Aykroyd and Bill Murray in the movie, it won’t be as Ray Stantz or Peter Venkman, but each of them will likely have some kind of amusing exchange withMelissa McCarthy, Kristen Wiig, Kate McKinnonorLeslie Jones.
That leavesErnie Hudsonas the only original member of the Ghostbusters team who hasn’t been confirmed to have a cameo yet, but since hewasn’t really a fan of the ideaof this reboot to begin with, he might not get an opportunity. Though earlier this year he did change his tune, calling the new group of female Ghostbusters “a very funny group” and said he would love to be part of the reboot in some capacity to pass the torch, simply so he could “get paid.”
And of course there’sSigourney Weaver, Rick MoranisandAnnie Pottswho could make an appearance too. But there would come a point when having every key cast member from the movie making a cameo would be a little excessive, so if it’s just the actual Ghostbusters popping up here and there, then that’s perfectly fine.
Otherwise, Bill Murray was being the Bill Murray we all know and love when he made a stop in Martha’s Vineyard, telling some kids how to have the best time in the area, by swimming every day and eating lots of ice cream. If you want to see Murray chomping down on some ice cream and chatting with local kids, check out the brief story at theBoston Globe. Otherwise, stay tuned to see what else we learn about theGhostbustersreboot.
