Dan Aykroyd has revealed story details for the third movie in the Ghostbusters series.

The actor, who co-wrote and starred in the '80s comedy flicks, confirmed that the upcoming film will introduce a new team of ghost catchers.

"There will be a whole new generation that has to be trained, and that whole new generation will be led by an individual who you'll all love when you meet him but I'm not going to tell you anything yet," MTV quotes him as saying.

Aykroyd dropped further plot hints for Ghostbusters 3, saying that the new cadets ("boys and girls") will travel to different dimensions using a "neuron splitter".

Despite Sigourney Weaver's refusal to lend her voice to the Ghostbusters video game, Aykroyd insisted that the actress will be back to join Bill Murray, Harold Ramis, Ernie Hudson and himself in the third instalment.

"Sigourney will be in it," he said. "I know we'll make that happen."
