From what I have heard, Ivan Reitman (Heavy Metal, Meatballs, Caddyshack,
Stripes, and Ghostbusters) has been signed to produce, direct, or both for the
motion picture version of "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy".

Probably means that Bill Murray will play Zaphod and Harold Ramis will
play Ford, leaving John Candy to play Arthur [:-)].
