Retired Rick Moranis Won't Do Ghostbusters Game

[Newsbot]

Code: Select all

Hoping that actor Rick Moranis will join his fellow Ghostbusters alums for the upcoming videogame version? Not gonna happen. He's too rich.

Although Bill Murray, Harold Ramis, and Dan Aykroyd will reunite for this year's Ghostbusters videogame, their Second City pal Moranis won't reprise his role as dork-turned-Keymaster Louis Tully. "He made so much money off of Honey I Shrunk The Kids that he retired. He just doesn’t want to work anymore," the game's producer told Das Gamer.

So he'll do voice work for the Brother Bear movies, but not this? Sigh.

I'm actually interested in seeing this game. Screw Rick Moranis.

Rick Moranis retired?

What does this mean for the long-rumored Strange Brew followup?

I think a Mod needs to fix the title of this thread to:

Retarded Rick Moranis Won't Do Ghostbusters Game

[vynsane]

true.

If Bill Murray even agreed to do the game, there's no reason for Rick Moranis to hold out. He's not the only one, though. Sigourney Weaver opted out of the game, too. But she's excused. She's Ellen Ripley, for Christ's sake.

And, IIRC, the only person involved in either Ghostbusters film to have been nominated for an Oscar.

Unless Bill Murray got one for that boring looking movie directed by Sofia Coppola.

Bill Murray did get a nomination for "Lost in Translation". Hell, even Dan Aykroyd got a nomination (for "Driving Miss Daisy").
