It’s official. Ghostbusters 2020 is on the way to the big screen next year and there is a whole lot to be excited about already. The biggest news so far is that the movie, scheduled for release on July 10th, 2020, is a straight sequel to the original two movies, not a reboot like the controversial 2016 version and it is almost certainly going to reunite many from the original cast and crew.
Ghostbusters 2020 director Jason Reitman casually shared a very intriguing cast photo from the set of his movie, which just started filming for its release this time next year. This Ghostbusters movie is a family affair in every respect. Reitman is the son of director Ivan Reitman, who directed the original 1984 Ghostbusters.
Both Reitmans are in the set photo, along with cast members Carrie Coon, Finn Wolfhard, and Mckenna Grace. Meet the family:

All we know about Ghostbusters 2020‘s cast is that Carrie Coon plays a single mother with Captain Marvel‘s Mckenna Grace and Stranger Things‘ Finn Wolfhard as her kids. The main stars are reportedly two sets of teens — one set older, one younger.
It’s hard not to read into Mckenna Grace’s new look in Jason Reitman’s set photo. She’s basically unrecognizable as herself, but very recognizable as an adorable mini Egon.
Paul Rudd Has Signed On To Star
Paul Rudd is one of the most charming and funniest people in Hollywood today. With the recent announcement that he would be a part of Ghostbusters 2020, we have a good reason to start getting excited for the project.
Captain Marvel’s Mckenna Grace Will Also Play A Role
Speaking of up-and-coming child stars and fresh off her role as a young Carol Danvers in Captain Marvel, McKenna Grace has also been announced as a cast member.
Carrie Coon Will Play Mckenna Grace’s Mother
Another exciting addition to the cast is the star of the television show Fargo, Carrie Coon, who has been announced as Mckenna Grace’s mother.
Stranger Things Star Finn Wolfhard Is In The Cast
Given Finn Wolfhard’s character’s Halloween costume in Season 2 of Stranger Things was Ghostbuster Peter Venkman, it’s pretty perfect that he will be one of the stars in Ghostbusters 2020.

Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd, And Sigourney Weaver Might Be Back Too…
OG Ghostbuster Dan Aykroyd has talked about how much this movie will connect to the original. The surviving Ghostbusters are all expected to return — with Aykroyd joined by Bill Murray and Ernie Hudson, with Sigourney Weaver saying she’s in as well.
Ok, but there are strong indications that at least three or four of the cast members from the original Ghostbusters will be back in one way or another for this new one. So while there is nothing definitive about their possible appearances in Ghostbusters 2020 it does look promising.
The film is scheduled for release in theaters on July 10, 2020.
