Filming For Jason Reitman’s ‘Ghostbusters’ Has Been Pushed Back

Jason Reitman’s Ghostbusters filming appears to have been pushed back and will now begin filming later this year on July 12.

Jason Reitman revealed earlier this year that he will be working on a sequel for the first two Ghostbusters films which his father both directed. Now that more details about the upcoming film have been released teasing the return of the original cast in their respective roles filming was set to begin soon. Unfortunately, according to Discussing Film, the Ghostbusters sequel will take some time now and instead begin filming on July 12. Filming for Ghostbusters is set to begin on Calgary which is in Canada.

You can view Discussing Film’s report below:

Jason Reitman’s father Ivan Reitman along with a script by Dan Aykroyd and Harold Ramis helped reshape the world of ghost hunting in 1984. Now, Jason Reitman wants to do the same and carry on his father’s work with a sequel that will be ignoring the 2016 Ghostbusters film by Paul Feig. Instead, Jason Reitman will reportedly be bringing the old cast back in their respective roles for his Ghostbusters film and in some way bring it full circle with a nice closure for the old cast. Jason Reitman has made a name for himself as a director so there is no doubt that with his knowledge and directorial skills the next Ghostbusters film could be the one fans have been waiting for.

It is said that the original cast of available Ghostbusters will return to their roles, but no cast has been announced yet. Jason Reitman has reportedly said that the story will not just focus on their characters but primarily a younger, teenage cast as well.

Directed by Jason Reitman from a script he co-wrote with Poltergeist remake director Gil Kena, the new Ghostbusters project will begin filming in the coming months.

The Untitled Ghostbusters Sequel is scheduled to be released in theaters in 2020.
