Hollywood rouwt om het overlijden van regisseur Ivan Reitman. Zo tweet Ernie Hudson, die meespeelde in Reitmans Ghostbusters en Ghostbusters II, dat hij diep bedroefd is. “Hij was een geweldige man en filmmaker en ik had de eer en het privilege om hem te kennen en met hem samen te werken,” voegt hij eraan toe.

Ook Paul Feig, die de door Reitman geproduceerde Ghostbusters-reboot uit 2016 inblikte, is overstuur. “Ik ben in shock,” schrijft hij op Twitter. “Ik had de eer om nauw met Ivan samen te werken en ik heb altijd veel van hem geleerd.”

“Hij heeft enkele van mijn favoriete komedies ooit geregisseerd,” vervolgt Feig. “Iedereen die komedies maakt, is hem zoveel verschuldigd. Bedankt voor alles, Ivan. Oprecht.”

I’m in absolute shock. I had the honor of working so closely with Ivan and it was always such a learning experience. He directed some of my favorite comedies of all time. All of us in comedy owe him so very much. Thank you for everything, Ivan. Truly. ❤️❤️ https://t.co/SGnI7OcT9s

One of the most special moments to me was after our last test screening of Ghostbusters:ATC after we did some reshoots and our scores went through the roof. Ivan met me out in the lobby and said “I’m so happy for you I feel like crying.” That’s the kind of generous man he was. ❤️ pic.twitter.com/Y502HZp8Ck

Sending so much love to the great @JasonReitman for the loss of his amazing father Ivan. Jason and Ivan have always been so supportive of me throughout my career and I’ll never be able to truly repay them both. This is such a sad day. ❤️❤️❤️ pic.twitter.com/JUCTJuIwrq

Opening night of Ghostbusters at UA Plainview was like a rock concert. The place exploded with joy. It was one of the most memorable moments of my childhood. Ivan Reitman influenced everything we all love about film comedy. A true legend. https://t.co/AHKAoo1ahB

He was always rigorous, curious, and generous with his advice. He cared about comedy but also about story and character and making a movie Good. Lucky to have known a fellow traveler who proved you can have it all. Thank you and RIP
