Paul Feig’s Ghostbusters to draw inspiration from The Walking Dead?

Last Updated on July 22, 2021

In what’s starting to become white noise, more news from Paul Feig’s GHOSTBUSTERS has surfaced, this time with 100% more “The Walking Dead”. Wait, what? During an episode of “The Talking Dead”, in which Feig was a guest, the director shed some light on how he hopes to bring an element of “The Walking Dead” into his GHOSTBUSTERS film.

I will say, I was very inspired by this show. What I love is how they play with the danger, they play with the scariness, but also the idea that it's always about gauntlet run. And that's something, an element I want to bring to this Ghostbusters reboot is having to get through these various obstacles that are supernatural and all that. I really feed off of The Walking Dead.

What are the chances that AMC promised him zombie slaves to say that? GHOSTBUSTERS is slated for a release on July 22, 2016. The new cast includes Kristen Wiig, Melissa McCarthy, Kate McKinnon, and Leslie Jones.
