    I don't think honestly Moranis is caring much these days as he "Chooses his roles very carefully now" and not "Retired". The guy is more or less retired and doesn't miss the spotlight one bit.

    Rick Moranis to Reprise His Role of Wayne Szalinski
    https://comicbook.com/movies/2020/02...-rick-moranis/

    Synopsis
    Aware that the family ties have loosened over time but seemingly afraid to confront anyone directly. He has been tinkering alone in his attic for decades, dealing with the grief of losing his wife. When we first meet him, he has accidentally shrunk himself and is flying around on a shrunken drone — seemingly lost in a continuous of tinkering and experimenting that often puts himself and his family in jeopardy. He later reveals he shut himself away to try and invent a solution to help shrink Diane's cancer but found it hard to cope when he ran out of time. His guilt and shame is palpable. Through the crisis of the kids getting shrunk, the truth emerges and the bonds begin to redevelop between him and his kids.

    You wouldn't know that though because you've demonstrably never picked up a book nor educated yourself on the matter. Let me guess, overweight housewife?

    Iirc his wife died a long time ago and he pretty much quit acting to completely devote his life to raising their children. I think he only takes jobs for the income as needed and/or based on filming scheduling. So that was probably a factor.

    I know you never stop being a parent but how old are his "kids" now?

    So I found this article:

    https://people.com/movies/rick-moran...his-wife-died/

    So probable about 30 years old. But I don’t know if either child (now adults) has any difficulties which could be a reason.


    With that being said the article implies he didn’t do Ghostbusters because he’d be in like on cameo scene, but has a bigger part in HIStK.
