Zombieland's Ruben Fleischer, one of the contenders to replace Edgar Wright at the helm of Ant-Man , is also reportedly up to direct Ghostbusters 3.

TheWrap confirms that Fleischer is in the running for Ant-Man, "but he just had a baby with his wife, publicist Holly Shakoor Fleischer, and may be reluctant to take a demanding gig that will require such a big commitment. He's also being considered to direct Ghostbusters 3 for Sony, for whom he directed Zombieland and 30 Minutes or Less, though that project isn't heading into production nearly as soon."You should remember that Fleischer got Bill Murray to make a memorable appearance as himself in Zombieland, including wearing his old Ghostbusters uniform. With original director Ivan Reitman out and Murray more than hesitant to reprise his role as Peter Venkman, perhaps Fleischer can coax Murray to do the film.Fleischer's last film, Gangster Squad, was a flop. And while there hasn't been any fresh news on it for the past year, Fleischer is also attached to direct the big screen version of the video game classic Spy Hunter for Sony.
