Report Claims Bill Murray to be Resurrected in ZOMBIELAND 2 (Bringing Along Another Original “Ghostbuster”?)

Even while almost everyone everywhere is on vacation, Geeks Worldwide had fans across the globe plugging in their laptops with news that Bill Murray will return for a cameo in Zombieland 2. You may recall, in the original Zombieland, Murry plays himself. We learn he’s been surviving the apocalypse by looking and acting like a zombie—a tactic that works too well when he’s dispatched by a main character who doesn’t know better.

Don’t give me guff about spoilers; the movie is over 9-years-old!

If reports are true, Murry will be resurrected for another cameo in Zombieland 2 (which is also reuniting the original’s writer, director, and core-cast) and he’s bringing his Ghostbusters costar Dan Aykroyd along for the ride. Take the news with a grain of salt, because (at the time of posting) we don’t have a lick of corroborating evidence.

Of course, there are dozens of ways Murry could return to Zombieland: In a flashback, a dream/nightmare, in a film within the film—or even as an actual zombie. Time will tell. Look for Zombieland 2 to hit US theaters in time for Halloween on October 11th. If it’s been a while, you can give the trailer and synopsis for 2009’s Zombieland a spin below.

Synopsis:
After a virus turns most people into zombies, the world’s surviving humans remain locked in an ongoing battle against the hungry undead. Four survivors — Tallahassee (Woody Harrelson) and his cohorts Columbus (Jesse Eisenberg), Wichita (Emma Stone) and Little Rock (Abigail Breslin) — abide by a list of survival rules and zombie-killing strategies as they make their way toward a rumored safe haven in Los Angeles.
