Steve Guttenberg(I)

Turned down the role of Dr. Peter Venkman in Ghostbusters - Die Geisterjäger (1984) in favor of playing Carey Mahoney in: Police Academy - Dümmer als die Polizei erlaubt (1984), Police Academy 2 - Jetzt geht's erst richtig los (1985), Police Academy 3 - ...und keiner kann sie bremsen (1986) and Police Academy 4 - Und jetzt geht's rund (1987).

[addressing the rumours of a Police Academy/Mahoney spin-off film] Definitely. It's coming. People will look down at the idea, but they're in the same business of making money too. The Police Academy - Dümmer als die Polizei erlaubt (1984) films gave me so much opportunity, and I've got nothing but a good attitude towards them. I sure hope they do it. If the script's right - I'm definitely in. You never know, I may direct.
