More news from the set of Ghostbusters today as Ernie Hudson is reportedly spotted filming scenes. It’s as yet unclear whether he will play a role in the film or if he will simply cameo. Today is the last day of filming for the movie set to star Kristen Wiig, Melissa McCarthy, Leslie Jones and Kate McKinnon. Hudson, who played Winston Zeddemore in the original 1980s films, previously expressed concern over the idea of having an all-female cast:
“I love females. I hope that if they go that way at least they’ll be funny, and if they’re not funny at least hopefully it’ll be sexy. I love the idea of including women, I think that’s great. But all-female I think would be a bad idea. I don’t think the fans want to see that.”
However, he has since changed his mind, and told THR that he thought the actresses involved were “Four fiercely funny, foxy, females busting ghosts … phenomenal!”. The new Ghostbusters movie will be releasing July 22nd, 2016 and has confirmed that Bill Murray and Dan Aykroyd will both be making appearances.
