Please can we all take a moment to absorb what’s just happened. This:
THIS. Is your new Ghostbusters cast. Shit doesn’t get any better than this, people.
Thank you. That is all.
And in updated news: July 22, 2016 is release date. Amen to that, sistahs.
NGL I am *flailing*
Too awesome.
I won’t be happy until there is a Bill Murray announcement.
I’m happy with this line-up, but I would be so much happier with Bill Murray back for more, too!
Pondered on this some more, and although I do like the line up, I think it could have been better. Kate McKinnon has a very similar comedic acting style to Kristen Wiig. Don’t get me wrong, love them both, but will they be too much on the screen together and just be annoying? If I was going to a cast from the current SNL pool, I probably would go with Cecily Strong, who in my opinion should never have been booted off the newsdesk. They should have shifted Colin Jost to bring in Michael Che, but that is a whole different conversation and totally off topic.
If they do get him, I hope Bill Murray isn’t put in another Bosley role, I think he would make a much better cameo as a ghost.
Agreed! And yes, I’m totally with you on the Michael Che/Cecily Strong line-up, Jost just flails like a fish out of water next to Michael Che. And his preppiness annoys me.
Bill Murray as the ghost of Steve Zissou… holy crap.
SO MUCH YES.
Yessss! I really hope we see at least some of these ladies as intelligent paranormal physicists!
Oh God, yes. Although I have confidence that with these four at the helm (particularly Kate McKinnon and Kristen Wiig), we’ll be seeing some fierce AND smart busters.
