Rick Moranis was spotted for the first time in over three years in the same city where he was randomly attacked in October 2020. The “Ghostbusters” actor, 70, was photographed Tuesday braving the wet New York City weather in a blue jacket, dark khaki pants, black tennis shoes and a colorful beanie.Moranis has rarely been seen in public since Marquis Ventura punched him in the head, knocking him to the ground. The actor was walking on Central Park West around West 70th Street on his way to his nearby apartment building when the incident occurred.Ventura was wearing an “I ❤ NY” sweatshirt at the time.His rep at the time said the actor was “fine.” Moranis was spotted at Trader Joe’s on Broadway nearly a week after the altercation, and Ventura was later sentenced to two years in prison on several counts of assault.Moranis, who hasn’t starred in a live-action flick since Disney’s “Honey, I Shrunk the Kids” in 1989, took a step back from acting in 1992 to focus on being a dad to daughter Rachel and son Mitchell after his wife, costume designer Ann Belsky, died of breast cancer.
