Egon isn't dead. But Harold Ramis is.
There's talk of another live-action Ghostbusters (what else is new?), and they're considering adding a CGI Egon.
His daughter is apparently fine with it as long as the work is "exceptional." I just can't imagine a world where a Ghostbusters movie featuring the original team could be fantastic without Ramis's direct, LIVE input.
Granted, we've had another wildly sucessful interpretation of the character, via The Real Ghostbusters and Maurice LaMarche.
It's too soon. With Star Wars recreations, we had some space to breath (ha ha). This is too soon, much too soon. The world isn't ready.
I'm not ready.
Maybe in 20 years. But not now. Just let him rest a while longer, okay movies?
Also, his daughter followed up the article with this tweet, which puts it better than I ever could:
