Reitman is putting the male-driven film with a powerhouse brain trust: Captain America: The Winter Soldier helmers Joe and Anthony Russo, who just made a first-look Sony deal and are looking to direct and produce this; Drew Pearce, the Iron Man 3 and Mission: Impossible 5 scribe who’ll write; and Channing Tatum and his partners Reid Carolin and Peter Kiernan, who are attached to produce. The hope is for Tatum to play one of the Ghostbusters in this film. Given his versatility and franchising success in 21 Jump Street and Magic Mike, he’s a good cornerstone to launch another Ghostbusters series.

This is being put together even as the studio moves to the start line with a Ghostbusters reboot that will be directed by Feig and star his Bridesmaids leads Kristen Wiig and Melissa McCarthy, and Saturday Night Live stand outs Leslie Jones and Kate McKinnon. All of this is being steered by new studio head Tom Rothman and production president Michael De Luca.

This would kind of be a slap in the face to the all-female cast version. It'll basically be like, "here's a little something to please girls, but here's an ACTUAL reboot for everyone else."

oh, I thought this was saying he's in the other one. Dumb idea.

well this one would make money

White male entitlement strikes again.
How dare women be treated equally and have major movies featuring them?

Ridiculous that they have to make an all-male one to counter the all-female one. Totally unnecessary and sad.

All I'll say is that I agree with what's been said in this thread so far.

watching for Channing.

This is ****ing stupid and it pisses me off so much

I don't see the issue with there being both an all female and all male ghostbusters film. They don't seem to contradict each other and I'm guessing the films will merge in future sequels?

What is the need?

The female one can do very well on its own? It's like a slap in the face to the female cast, "We're not sure if you will be relatable to everyone so we're also going to make a male version too"

Totally not needed.

Disgusting. Pissbaby white boys get their way again.
