Updates From Hawkeye, Ghostbusters: Afterlife, and More

The Scorpion King

In conversation with Screen Rant, producer Hiram Garcia revealed a Scorpion King reboot is now in development at Universal.

Universal had come to us and really wanted to figure out how we can open up that world again. So we’ve been having a lot of fun figuring out how we want to crack that. But that is in the works. We’re looking at bringing a Scorpion King world back to life. And it’s such a special property because for me, it was my first film I ever worked on. It’s when I realised I wanted to be a producer. It was [Dwayne Johnson]’s first starring role. So there’s a lot of love for that franchise. And if we can figure out how to bring it back to the fans in a fun way, it would be really rewarding for us.

Ghostbusters: Afterlife

Actor Ira Haiden (Will, the “Wizard Master” from A Nightmare on Elm Street, Part 3: Dream Warriors) revealed to The 80’s Slasher Librarian (via Bloody-Disgusting) that he voices the mini Stay-Pufts in Ghostbusters: Afterlife.

I asked my buddy who directed the movie, said I will do anything… any part… voice stuff, ADR, anything. And so I got to do ADR [Additional Dialogue Recording]… I got to play a bunch of ghosts, screaming ghosts and moaning ghosts. And scared children and adults running away from the ghosts. So the people who were running the session said that the director wanted me to stay… that’s when I found out I was going to voice the mini Stay Puft characters. So, there’s a bunch of them up there…there’s one that’s on the grill that’s salivating and sucking it back up, that’s me. There’s one on the Rumba, you’ll see that bumps into Paul Rudd, one of those are me. There’s another guy that’s eating a green jelly bean and poops it out, that’s me. And there’s a bunch of others actors/actresses that are on there also. It was three and a half to four hours of pure fun.
