Jason Reitman, the son of original Ghostbusters director Ivan Reitman, has been hired to direct a “secret” new entry in the Ghostbusters series.
Reitman told Entertainment Weekly: “I’ve always thought of myself as the first Ghostbusters fan, when I was a six year old visiting the set.
According to Entertainment Weekly, Reitman senior will produce the new film, which will act as a continuation of Ghostbusters II and is unconnected thematically with the 2016 all-female reboot.
Original co-writer Aykroyd has been attempting to set up a sequel to Ghostbusters II for some time, but it appears Reitman’s project is entirely separate.
