Ghostbusters co-creator Dan Aykroyd confirms he’s returning along side co-stars Bill Murray, Sigourney Weaver, Ernie Hudson and Annie Potts for Ghostbusters 3, which as of right now will be called Ghostbusters 2020. The new movie will be directed by Jason Reitman, who’s father Ivan, directed Ghosterbusters and Ghostbusters 2.

Ghostbusters 2020 will be a direct sequel and so far focus on unnamed family portrayed by McKenna Grace, Finn Wolfhard (Stranger Things) and Carrie Coon, with Paul Rudd playing a seismologist and teacher.

“Jason Reitman wrote a beautiful, heartfelt script that takes the real DNA from the first two movies and transfers that directly to the third, the next generation. It hands the legacy off to a new generation of stars, and players, and actors, and characters,” Aykroyd said on The Greg Hill Show.

“It was really exciting working around this new idea, a new take on the story which Jason — who’s a really incredible and fine filmmaker — came up with. So I’m pretty excited,” Aykroyd said. “You never know in the film business. Nobody knows about anything. ‘Nobody knows nothing,’ as the great writer William Goldman said. Nobody knows anything, you don’t know what’s going to be a hit or not. But I have really good feelings for this, just because of the quality of the stars we’ve got there.”

The movie is set to come out in Summer of 2020.
