Bill Murray is set to take a dramatic turn by playing President Franklin D. Roosevelt in Hyde Park On Hudson directed by Roger Michell (Morning Glory,Notting Hill). The film was written by Richard Nelson and the story is set "recounts the quasi-incestuous love affair between the president and his distant cousin, Margaret Stuckley, and takes place on the June 1939 weekend that the British King and Queen visited Roosevelt at his upstate New York cottage, in the first-ever visit to America by a member of the United Kingdom monarchy."

The film begins shooting in July so it looks Ghostbusters 3 is on hold for now. What are your thoughts on this news?
