A THIRD Ghostbusters movie is moving ever closer with production tentatively scheduled to start sometime in 2010.

Ivan Reitman has confirmed that a script is being worked on with a view to “doing some ghost-busting for 2010”, according to the Hollywood Reporter.

The new story will reportedly combine the continuing exploits of all three original characters with new ones, including Sigourney’s kid, Oscar, whom she had with Bill Murray.

Ivan Reitman recently chatted about his intentions for the third film at a London press conference for his latest film, Chloe, which he produces. Read details here
