That\u2019s common knowledge: Who ya gonna call? Ghostbusters.<br \/>\nBut this summer, a new team is putting on the jumpsuits and taking on the iconic<br \/>\nrole in the \u2018Ghostbusters\u2019 reboot film. <\/p>\n<p>The first trailer for the upcoming film debuted last week, featuring plenty of laughs,<br \/>\nghosts, and slime. The reboot has all new, all female team. The film stars Melissa<br \/>\nMcCarthy, Kristen Wiig, Kate McKinnon, and Leslie Jones.<br \/>\nThe film follows the scientists and a subway worker as they work together to defeat<br \/>\na powerful demon who can take over the bodies of humans. The trailer also revels<br \/>\nthat there is someone in the city who created a device that amplifies ghostly activity.<br \/>\nPeople are much more opposed to the idea of ghosts in the reboot\u2019s New York than<br \/>\nin 1984 New York, which adds a new goofy dynamic to being a Ghostbuster.<br \/>\nThe trailer put a lot of focus on the comedy of the movie, making it look like an over<br \/>\nthe top modern day comedy film, instead of the classic \u2018Ghostbusters\u2019 style like long<br \/>\ntime fans were hoping for.<\/p>\n<p>Although the trailer stars out with a nod to the original, director Paul Feig has stated<br \/>\nthat there are no narrative ties between the reboot and the original. Luckily, fans<br \/>\ncan count on the original song being in the reboot, as well as a lot of nods to the<br \/>\noriginal ghosts. <\/p>\n<p>The \u2018Ghostbusters\u2019 reboot sparked up some controversy when it was first<br \/>\nannounced because of its all female cast, but Feig has since than talked about how<br \/>\nthe all female cast is going to provide a new energetic dynamic to the classic<br \/>\n\u2018Ghostbusters\u2019 concept and criticism has died down. <\/p>\n<p>There has also been speculation that Bill Murray will reprise his role as Dr. Peter<br \/>\nVankman, for he\u2019s listed as a cast member on IMDB. Some people believe he\u2019ll play<br \/>\nan important role in the movie, while others are saying he\u2019ll simply be a cameo. <\/p>\n<p>\u2018Ghostbusters\u2019 will premiere worldwide this summer.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We\u2019ve all known for a long time what to do if there happens to be something strange<br \/>\nin the neighborhood.
