The Original Ghostbusters Cast: Where Are They Now?

9. DAN AYKROYD (DR. RAYMOND STANTZ) (my favorite cast member)

The last Ghostbuster cast member, Dr. Raymond Stantz (loving known by his colleagues as Ray) is passionate about his work. He often has a child-like enthusiasm when it comes to paranormal activity and is responsible for helping develop the Ghostbusters technology. He’s also the cause of the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man massacre that overtakes New York.

Dan Aykroyd is a writer, director, actor, and producer. He directed 1991’s Nothing But Trouble wrote films such as The Blues Brothers (1980) and is working as an executive producer on the upcoming Ghostbusters film. He has also acted in such hits as The Campaign (2012), 50 First Dates (2004), Pearl Harbor (2001), and Driving Miss Daisy (1989). There have been countless others as well, and fans can expect to see him acting in the upcoming Ghostbusters film as well.

When not acting, Aykroyd keeps busy promoting Crystal Head Vodka, which he founded in 2008.

10. IVAN REITMAN (DIRECTOR, PRODUCER, AND VOICE OF ZUUL/SLIMER)

There is no Reitman, only Zuul. Kind of. Though uncredited for his voice work in the film, director/producer Ivan Reitman put a voice to the lovable green glob and the evil entity known to all as Zuul, two characters that would become iconic in the film industry and become fan favorites.

Reitman has since directed Ghostbusters II (1989), No Strings Attached (2011) and Draft Day (2014), just to name a few, but it’s the production teams he’s been behind that has really earned him a name for himself. His name is on some large films, including I Love You, Man (2009), Up In The Air (the 2009 Socar nominee that was directed by his son, Jason Reitman), the newest Ghostbusters film as well as the upcoming Baywatch film set to release next year.
