The ensemble in the new Ghostbusters movie, a direct sequel to Ivan Reitman’s Ghostbusters (1984) and Ghostbusters 2 (1989), has gotten a little bit bigger. Ant-Man actor Paul Rudd is set to star alongside Stranger Things’ Finn Wolfhard in the upcoming fantasy comedy.
Rudd (Avengers: Endgame, Captain America: Civil War) made the announcement via Twitter, where he posted a video of people taking photos in front of the "magnificent" Ghostbusters Firehouse building in New York. "I can’t wait to join the cast this fall for Ghostbusters," Rudd said toward the end of the video. Ghostbusters is scheduled for 2020.

Along with Rudd, Ghostbusters stars Carrie Coon (Avengers: Infinity War, Gone Girl), Finn Wolfhard (Dog Days, It), and Mckenna Grace (Captain Marvel, Fuller House).
Jason Reitman is sitting in the director role, while his father Ivan will serve as the producer. According to Jason, this new Ghostbusters movie is "the next chapter in the original franchise, not a reboot." Details are scarce, but we did get a teaser trailer back in January 2019, which you can check out above.
