Dan Aykroyd sat down with The Guardian to talk about the third "Ghostbusters" movie, revealing that he owes the success of the franchise to Bill Murray and his presence as the leading man.
He added that Murray didn't have many demands to return for "Ghostbusters 3," except that he wanted an assurance that Winston Zeddemore (Ernie Hudson), the underwritten black character from the movies, would be elevated to full status.
Regarding the story, Aykroyd said: "There'll be a whole new generation that has to be trained and a leader that you'll all love when you meet her. There'll be lots of cadets, boys and girls who'll be learning how to use the neuron splitter and the inter-planet interceptor - new tools to enable them to slip from dimension to dimension."
The female characters may end up being played by Alyssa Milano and Eliza Dushku, two actresses Aykroyd previously named as his casting choices.
And this isn't the first time that Aykroyd has mentioned dimension-jumping. Back in February of 2007, he talked about a script he wrote. "I wrote a script called 'Hell Bent,' Ghostbusters go to hell basically," said Aykroyd. "The premise is that it's Manhellton. There's Manhattan and ManHELLton. And if you can build an inter-dimensional phase system so that you can go from one dimension to another. We've succeeded doing that and we go to the hell side."
