Released on June 8th, 1984, the comedy classic "Ghostbusters" was a smash hit that grossed over $500 million (adjusted for inflation) and was nominated for two Academy Awards (best special effects and best song). It has spawned one sequel -- and another one is reportedly on the way -- a cartoon, a new video game (which the Daily News gives 4 stars) and plenty else. After 25 years, everyone still knows who to call when something "doesn't look good in your neighborhood," but do you know what the actors behind your favorite "Ghostbusters" characters are up to?

Nobody looks better possessed than Sigourney Weaver, the actress who played Dana Barrett, aka Zuul the Keymaster. Weaver is as beautiful today as she was 25 years ago, but its her voice that's been getting equal billing these days: She was the narrator in the "The Tale of Despereaux" and supplied the voice for the ship's computer in "WALL-E." As for when you can see her lovely face again, the "Alien" star will return to her sci-fi roots in James Cameron's "Avatar," out in December.

Slavitza Jovan, a Serbian model, played the ancient deity Gozer (who bore an unccany resemblance to David Bowie in his "Ziggy Stardust" days). 15 years later, with few credits in between, she would play the twisted nurse in "House on Haunted Hill."

One tends to know when one is watching a movie starring porn star Ron Jeremy, but it's likely you didn't know he was in "Ghostbusters" -- as an extra, of course. While Jeremy isn't making x-rated pics anymore, he's keeping busy by opening a swingers club in Portland, OR, in late June.

Reitman's son Jason, who made a brief appearance in "Ghostbusters II," is an accomplished director in his own right, having lensed the critically acclaimed comedies "Thank You for Smoking" and "Juno," for which he was nominated for an Academy Award. He hopes to have his latest, "Up in the Air," starring George Clooney, ready for a premiere at the Toronto Film Festival in September.

R&B sensation Bobby Brown may have been relegated to a doorman in "Ghostbusters II," but his song "On Our Own" takes center stage during the dramatic fight sequence. Sadly, Brown's private life makes bigger headlines than his music these days. After a turbulent turn on reality TV show "Being Bobby Brown" with wife singer Whitney Houston, the two have divorced. He and his girlfriend of 3 years Alicia Etheridge just welcomed a new baby boy.

Blink and you'd miss him, but Cheech Marin pops up in "Ghostbusters II" just as the Titanic docks in Manhattan. After almost 30 years apart, Marin recently reuinted with comedy partner Tommy Chong for a tour they're calling, "Light Up America."

The acting career of Philip Baker Hall, who appeared in


















David Margulies, who played the mayor in both "Ghostbusters" movies,  most recently had a 7 episode arc on "The Sopranos" and a brief stint on the cancelled Fox show "Canterbury's Law." You can still catch Margulies in New York working the stage, doing readings.
