Ghostbusters is the year’s highest profile remake, with the 1984 comedy classic being given a new spin by Bridesmaids and Spy director Paul Feig. New promotional images have now been released, showcasing the all-female ghostbusting team and revealing Thor star Chris Hemsworth’s secretary character for the first time. Check them out in the gallery below, via Collider:
Ghostbusters stars Kristen Wiig, Melissa McCarthy, Kate McKinnon, and Leslie Jones. A number of actors from the original movie will also feature in cameos, including Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd, Ernie Hudson, and Signourney Weaver.
In an interview with Empire last year, Feig spoke about his decision to reboot the film and start the story from scratch. “I have too much respect for the original one [to do a sequel],” he said, via ComicbookMovie. “There’s also the feeling that once the world knows ghosts and has seen them busted on such a large scale, they run the risk of becoming pedestrian.
“There’s something fun about introducing our world, which has never seen ghosts or the phenomenon of ghosts. I love origin stories and to introduce new characters.”
Ghostbusters arrives in cinemas on July 15, 2016.
