Dan Aykroyd and Bill Murray Unlikely to Return for Future Ghostbusters Films

The original Ghostbusters stars see the franchise moving forward with a new cast and ideas.

Dan Aykroyd and Bill Murray, original Ghostbusters stars, have indicated they don't expect to reprise their roles in future films.
Aykroyd mentioned that the franchise has a new cast and fresh ideas, making the return of original actors unnecessary.
The recent Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire film underperformed both critically and commercially, grossing $201.9 million worldwide.
Despite the mixed reception of Frozen Empire, director Gil Kenan and writer-producer Jason Reitman plan to continue the series.
A Ghostbusters animated series is in development for Netflix, with Dan Aykroyd serving as an executive producer.
