00:00Call Me By Your Name director Luca Guadagnino will direct the Scarface reboot, and it's a blast from the past.
00:05Thomas Wilson reprises his Back to the Future villain, plus original Ghostbuster Bill Murray reveals new details about Ghostbusters' afterlife.
00:13First, Call Me By Your Name's Luca Guadagnino has been tapped to direct Universal Pictures' new take on Scarface, which will be set in Los Angeles.
00:20Howard Hawks directed the original Chicago set Scarface in 1932, which was reimagined by Brian De Palma in 1983 with a story set in the Miami drug trade.
00:28The famously starred Al Pacino in the lead role of Tony Montana.
00:32Next, Biff is back.
00:33Thomas Wilson reprised his Back to the Future role of Biff Tannen for a supplementary segment of Josh Gad's YouTube series, Reunited Apart, which was posted on Thursday.
00:41Earlier in the week, Gad hosted a Back to the Future reunion with the cast and crew for his popular new series, which raises money for first responders during the coronavirus pandemic.
00:49Nearly all the actors took part, but Wilson was absent.
00:52However, during a new Fan Calls session, Gad heard from one disgruntled man in a mask and glasses.
00:57Then watch it.
00:59Okay.
01:00Uh, okay.
01:01Can I ask why?
01:02Because you're a butthead.
01:04Sound familiar?
01:05What are you looking at, butthead?
01:06The man said he was calling in to complain that the best character in the film, Biff, was nowhere to be seen during the reunion special.
01:12The disgruntled fan ended the call by taking off his mask and revealing that, of course, it was Wilson the whole time.
01:18Hey, Gad!
01:20What's the eye to your mom for me?
01:22And original Ghostbuster Bill Murray is shedding a little more light on the upcoming film, Ghostbusters Afterlife.
01:27Almost the entire cast is returning for the Ghostbusters sequel except two of the original actors, Rick Moranis and the late Harold Ramis.
01:34Murray spoke to Ellen DeGeneres via digital chat for her Thursday show wearing a panda mask, yes, a panda mask, and said Ramis and Moranis are missed.
01:43They're greatly missed for so many reasons. They were so much a part of the creation of it and the fun of it.
01:49Ramis died in 2014 at the age of 69, but Murray noted Ramis' character is part of the new movie.
01:55But Harold is featured in the story of the movie, so it'll be very interesting, this character, Egon Spangler.
02:03Ghostbusters Afterlife moved off its July 10th release date to March 5th, 2021 due to the novel coronavirus pandemic.
