"The movie studio wanted to do the right thing so they wanted to check it all out, investigate it and so they stopped the production."Murray said he and the unnamed woman are talking it through and "trying to make peace with each other." He didn’t say when or if production would resume and whether he’d continue to take part in the film."We’re both professionals," Murray said of the woman. "We like each other’s work.

We like each other I think and if you can’t really get along and trust each other, there’s no point in going further working together or making a movie as well."The 71-year-old "Ghostbusters" and "Caddyshack" comedian suggested the changing nature of what’s considered appropriate humor was a factor."It’s been quite an education for me," he said. "The world is different than it was when I was a little kid.

What I always thought was funny as a little kid isn’t necessarily the same as what’s funny now. Things change and the times change so it’s important for me to figure it out."Murray added: "I think it’s a sad dog that can’t learn anymore.
