Over the weekend, director Paul Feig announced on his Twitter that he's wrapped up filming for his upcoming GHOSTBUSTERS reboot starring Kristen Wiig, Melissa McCarthy, Leslie Jones and Kate McKinnon. The movie is reported to have a budget of at least $150 million, and will also feature the talents of Chris Hemsworth as the 'Busters receptionist and Neil Casey as the film's villain.

And while we're on the subject of GHOSTBUSTERS, THR has learned that Ernie Hudson will have a cameo in the reboot. However, it's unlikely he'll be reprising his Winston Zeddemore role since Dan Aykroyd and Bill Murray, who will also cameo, more than likely won't be appearing in the film as their original GB characters. When do you think the first trailer will be released for the reboot?

GHOSTBUSTERS will be in theaters on July 15, 2016.
