Paul Feig is on this week's Empire Podcast to talk about his latest, Spy, which is out right about... now. But as well as the espionage-based chatter, there was plenty on Feig's next project, the reboot of Ghostbusters - starring Kristen Wiig, Melissa McCarthy, Leslie Jones and Kate McKinnon - and here below are some quotes from the interview to get you excited. Which Feig also happens to be, by the by.
"I’m excited," says Feig. "Those four ladies I have starring in it are so funny and that’s half the battle. I’m going to battle with the best army I have. My whole crew from all my other movies have come aboard, and some great special effects people have come aboard – I have never really done this level of effects before – and I’m excited!"
"It’s always a risk, but every movie you make is a risk. This one just happens to be one that’s toying with everyone’s childhoods!"
"A lot of people are mad because it’s a reboot. But I don’t know how to do it any other way, because it’s been 25 years since the last one. Harold has gone, Bill doesn’t want to do it, and I love Dan and Ernie, but people had written those scripts and they were fine, but it felt sweaty to me, it felt like a wheel was off the cart. I thought, ‘Why don’t we go into this and reinvent it so we can go into a world that doesn’t have ghosts?’"
"I love origin stories. I want to see them come up with the tech. I want to see them seeing a ghost for the first time, as opposed to ‘Oh yeah, all those years ago there was a ghost attack on New York…’ Just for me it was hard."
There's much more than that in the full interview, which you can listen to below.
Ghostbusters 3 - as it's provisionally being called by many - is set for a July 22, 2016 release and will start shooting in two weeks.
