A new Ghostbusters film is coming. What’s more, the ghost-fighting team this time around will be made up of women, and Bridesmaids director and mastermind behind the cult classic television series Freaks and Geeks, Paul Feig, has been tapped to write the script.
The Hollywood Reporter says Katie Dippold, who worked with Feig on Sandra Bullock/Melissa McCarthy body cop flick The Heat, will be teaming up with the director again on the new Ghostbusters project.

Well if the heat is anything to go by I wont be calling anybody
I AM SO CONFLICTED BY THIS ANNOUNCMENT!
Well this is going to be utter sh*te!
How can people think this will be good based on nothing more than it having a same name and premise as a couple of good 80s movies?
I hope Lina Cardellini is in it, she has experience fighting ghosts
G-g-g-ghosts?
This Feig fella is a bit of a dope. Makes a point of mentioning it’s an all female ghostbusters and then wonders why everyone is making a big deal about it.
Cleavage and ectoplasm, my teenage fantasy comes to fruition
Yay!
Why can’t they leave my childhood alone man
Dude you were like 30 when Ghostbusters was out!
I wish it was going to be good but remakes never are… I’m more worried about the remake of the Goonies tbh. WTF is that about?!
Honestly, watch the Goonies as an adult. It’s a hot bag of sh1t.
Shut. Your. Mouth.
I will cut you man!
This is maybe the most offensive thing Mani has EVER said on BS.
You guys!
Seriously though, no, it’s a sweaty bag of ass.
Mani, I have never been more serious in my life.
I am too. It has serious third act problems and half the cast can’t act. Maybe it’s because I’ve only ever seen it as an adult that I can’t work nostalgia into my appreciation. And the notion that a group of children go looking for one-eyed willy is like a paedophiles wet dream.
Mani…. I just .. Why would you…
*cries*
I imagine a directors cut where all of the kids are led out of the cave, in tears. A group of angry parents advance on a man in a pirates costume. The police intervene.
Detective: ‘You molested those kids, Willy. You’re going away for a long time.
Willy: ‘In my defence, not ALL of them. I guess you could say Andy isn’t my type’
Stef (screams): You molest ed ME!
Willy: ‘Dude, you’re a chick? My bad’.
You need to get out more..
I’m next.
Was the Bourne Identity remake not better?
Bourne Shmourne Repro!
People get paid to think this creatively??
How can I copyright the idea of Ghostbusters with a mixed sex Chinese kung-fu Ghostbusters team?
Subplot:
Where the tough guy (dickhead) Ghostbuster isn’t really as good as the the attractive female Ghostbuster, but thinks he’s better.
Sh1te film to begin with. Great theme song though…dededoo de doo doo….
Betcha they’re gonna put that tubby burd Melissa Mc Carthy in it. Feig can’t make a movie without putting her into it and she just ain’t funny. I too fear for a remake. However if they ramp up the certification to 18, put in Scarlett Johannsen, Kate Hudson and Jennifer Lawrence and include a lot of shower scenes, that might work.
