Bill Murray says he would appear in new Ghostbusters movie if asked
Speaking with Indiewire, actor Bill Murray has revealed that he would appear in the upcoming new Ghostbusters movie, should he be asked to participate.
“I was in that movie (the 2016 reboot) just because they asked me, and I knew if I said no, I was saying I didn’t support that movie. I felt like, ‘OK, I’m going to support them because I support them as people. So I did that one and I would do this next one.’”
