That's pretty much the whole story. Entertainment Weekly got a hold of Anna Faris' rep and the rep confirmed that Anna has not joined Ghostbusters 3. They say the same for Forte and Hader, but don't say they've talked to their reps. No mention whether or not Anna is still in the running. No mention about the casting call. But official cast membership for Faris is officially a rumor busted. EW article tracked down courtesy of Proton Charging.
[UPDATE!]
It was only a matter of time before Dan Aykroyd commented, with his interviews kicking into full swing for Yogi Bear this month. According to second hand info from one of Bloody Disgusting's readers, Dan was on WGN Radio Chicago where "He confirmed that they are casting and open to finding some fresh faces, adding that both Bill Hader and Anna Faris have been mentioned as 'strong possibilities', although it's still too earlier to call. Aykroyd, who plays Dr. Raymond Stantz in the franchise, also mentioned Eliza Dushku's name again, also confirming (what we already knew) that both Bill Murray and Sigourney Weaver are returning."
It's good to get another confirmation that Murray is returning, there hasn't been a solid one yet and this is closer to that point.
