In the films Ghostbusters (1984) and Ghostbusters II (1989), Bill Murray‘s character is Dr. Peter Venkman. For a Ghostbuster, Venkman sure doesn't know much about busting ghosts.
As per Shmoop.com, our protagonist is a bad scientist who seems to have only gotten a doctorate in parapsychology because it was an easy way to get a free ride at a university.
Forget about what Bill Murray has said in the past, as the 64-year-old actor will appear in the 2016 female reboot of “Ghostbusters.” The Hollywood Reporter confirmed the exciting casting news.
Filming for the “Ghostbusters” movie has been underway for a couple weeks, but Murray’s involvement in the project is a new update.
According to Ibtimes.com, the actor, who starred in the original 1984 movie as Dr. Peter Venkman, has been refusing to reprise his role for years.
Murray’s part in the film remains a mystery. It’s currently unclear how big of a part he’ll play when the new “Ghostbusters” hits theaters on July 22, 2023.
