As this is the summer where Indiana Jones has proved that you can revive a franchise that’s been gone for nearly two decades and still bring home the bacon, it seems that the spotlight has suddenly swung back towards a potential third Ghostbusters film.

Previously, the third film had got quite close to production, but it eventually fell by the wayside, and Bill Murray confirmed that he would not have anything to do with it (he was apparently keen to see his character killed off). Sony, however, seems keen to bring the franchise back, not least because of the interest in the forthcoming video game, to which the original cast has lent their voices.

That said, the cinematic revival is unlikely to involve any of the original team in any kind of lead role, with the old hands instead turning up in the film to hand over the reigns to a new team of Ghostbusters, reports Dread Central. It also cites Steve Carell and Seth Rogen as possible new recruits to do battle with the supernatural.

There’s been no official confirmation forthcoming, but it certainly sounds plausible from where we’re sitting.
