The director of the first two Ghostbuster films, Ivan Reitman announced today that Ghostbusters 3 will shoot in early 2015, but he won’t be directing it.
This news comes as a bit of a surprise after the recent death of Harold Ramis.
Ghostbusters 3 has been in development hell for nearly three decades. Bill Muarry has been very outspoken in the past about not wanting to be involved, so it’s unlikely that he will appear. As recent as 2013 Dan Akroyd stated that Ghostbusters 3 would centre around a new generation of Ghostbusters-with the originals acting as mentors and passing on the torch.

What do you think, does the world need another Ghostbusters? Let us know below.

I love it. It’s like a modern take on Jon Pertwee’s costume.
Capaldi said of his costume “No frills, no scarf, no messing, just 100 per cent Rebel Time Lord.”

Rumours have been rife since it was first announced that Disney will be delivering us a new adventure from a galaxy far, far away. But the original stars would not comment. But now Carrie Fisher has confirmed that she, Harrison Ford and Mark Hamill will be returning to Star Wars.

An official announcement has yet to be made by Disney, but I’m willing to accept Fisher at her word.
It was confirmed last week that the script is now complete and that filming will begin in England next month.

Roger Lloyd-Pack, the actor best known for his role as Colin “Trigger” Ball in the classic BBC sitcom Only Fools and Horses, has died aged 69.

His agent confirmed that he died at home, after losing a battle with pancreatic cancer on Wednesday night.

Tributes have poured in from former co-stars and members of the public.

Sir David Jason said “I was very saddened to hear of Roger’s passing. He was a very quiet, kind and unassuming actor who was a pleasure to work with. Although he played the simple soul of Trigger in Only Fools and Horses, he was a very intelligent man and a very fine actor capable of many roles. I shall remember him with fondness and for all the good times we had together.”

Lloyd-Pack leaves behind a daughter and three sons.
