Male Ghostbusters Is DOA

Along with talk of a female Ghostbusters, which obviously came to pass, there was also talk of a male-orientated Ghostbusters as well, a new one.  The Russo brothers were pegged for that one, with Channing Tatum and Chris Pratt rumoured for roles in the movie.

Well it seems like this one is dead on arrival.

Joe Russo told Forbes the following:

There is no status with that for us. There was a period there when Paul Feig was engaging Sony in talks about Ghostbusters and we were also engaging them. He was further along with his process than we were and he closed his deal so that’s the only Ghostbusters world that’s being explored right now over at Sony. Once we took Infinity War it [took] us off the table for any kind of any potential work on a Ghostbusters project.

The Russos are gearing up for the release of the highly anticipated Captain America: Civil War, which comes out May 6th.
