Emma Stone Passes On ‘Ghostbusters 3’…
A brief Ghostbusters 3 update and still nothing official has come out of Columbia Pictures’ mouth. They haven’t even announced the film yet, so who knows if the long-gestured sequel will even happen.
According to SK, Emma Stone is passing on “Anna” but Jonah Hill still has an offer out for “Jeremy”. So much for the big Superbad reunion. They also state that Sony wants two big stars signed on or they will not green light the picture.
Harold Ramis, Dan Aykroyd, Ernie Hudson, Rick Moranis, Sigourney Weaver aren’t stars, apparently.
Ivan Reitman will direct if this ever happens. It follows a ragtag group of paranormal researchers reopen their notorious ghost removal service, and a new generation of Ghostbusters is brought on board to be green slimed and trained to contain the mischievous spirits. We previously reported that the new ‘Busters will be lead by Dana and Peter’s lovechild, Oscar.
Filming is underway on The Invisible Man director Leigh Whannell’s Wolf Man for Universal and Blumhouse, which will be howling its way into theaters on January 17, 2025.
Deadline reports that Matilda Firth (Disenchanted) is the latest actor to sign on, joining Christopher Abbott (Poor Things), Julia Garner (The Royal Hotel), and Sam Jaeger.
The project will mark Whannell’s second monster movie and fourth directing collaboration with Blumhouse Productions (The Invisible Man, Upgrade, Insidious: Chapter 3).
Wolf Man stars Christopher Abbott as a man whose family is being terrorized by a lethal predator.
Writers include Whannell & Corbett Tuck as well as Lauren Schuker Blum & Rebecca Angelo.
Jason Blum is producing the film. Ryan Gosling, Ken Kao, Bea Sequeira, Mel Turner and Whannell are executive producers. Wolf Man is a Blumhouse and Motel Movies production.
In the wake of the failed Dark Universe, Leigh Whannell’s The Invisible Man has been the only real success story for the Universal Monsters brand, which has been struggling with recent box office flops including the comedic Renfield and period horror movie The Last Voyage of the Demeter. Giving him the keys to the castle once more seems like a wise idea, to say the least.
