SPOILER: Dan Aykroyd’s Role In ‘Ghostbusters’ Revealed
With a lot of news and publicity coming out about Paul Feig’s upcoming remake of Ghostbusters, there have been a lot of questions about the supposed cameo from original Ghostbuster Dan Aykroyd, who played Ray Stantz in the original two films. Well, according to Indie Revolver, his cameo has now been brought to full light.
Update: Sony has reps contacting sites asking for this information to be pulled in order to save the surprise for fans. Hard to argue that. You snooze you lose, guys!
And there you have it. That’s what Paul Feig is doing with Aykroyd for the new film. Is it a nice nod to the originals? Sure. Is it clever? I guess so. Is it a waste of talent and opportunity? Absolutely.
I really hope they do something unique and original with this. The Ghostbusters universe is so ripe for interesting and engaging stories.
With the holiday weekend ahead and the arrival of Evil Dead Burn in theaters next week, now is the perfect time to catch up on the franchise.
If you need even more incentive for an Evil Dead marathon, Evil Dead Burn actor Hunter Doohan recently teased that the new installment not only connects to Evil Dead Rise, but Sam Raimi‘s original trilogy as well.
It’s also highly recommended by Ash originator Bruce Campbell, who warned on social media that the uninitiated may need to practice for the visceral Deadite horror ahead.
HBO Max is making this directive even easier; all five Evil Dead movies are now available to stream on the service as of July 1!
Catch up on The Evil Dead, Evil Dead II, Army of Darkness, 2013’s Evil Dead, and Evil Dead Rise this weekend. For bonus credit, the Evil Dead series “Ash vs Evil Dead” is available to stream on Starz and Pluto TV.
Sébastien Vaniček’s Evil Dead Burn releases in theaters July 10, 2026.
After the loss of her husband, a woman seeks solace with her in-laws in their secluded family home. As one by one they are transformed into Deadites—turning the gathering into a family reunion from hell—she comes to discover that the vows she took in life… live on even in death.
Souheila Yacoub, Tandi Wright, and Hunter Doohan star.
Get ready for an onslaught of Deadite carnage; Vaniček promises the R-rated feature will get even gnarlier with his director’s cut.
Evil Dead II
