Tom Selleck as Indiana Jones

John Candy as Louis Tully
Eddie Murphy as Winston Zedmore
John Belushi as Peter Venkman
All would work.
John Candy in Ghostbusters would have made that movie even more iconic. Eddie Murphy in the reboot franchise would be nice. Tom Selleck absolutely could have played Indiana. Maybe not has popular, but it would have been good.

John Candy had a disagreement with the producers over how to play Louis. He wanted to be more of a cool guy but the producers wanted more of a nerd so that's what we got. Winston was supposed to be a bigger character and some sort of Army guy but that was changed when Eddie Murphy couldn't do it.
Belushi couldn't do the movie because he was dead.

idk I think Rick Moranis was perfect in that movie.
Eddie would have changed it. I know the part got way cut down when he wasn’t able to do it.
