#FIRSTLOOK: PAUL FEIG CONFIRMS HE’S DIRECTING “GHOSTBUSTERS III”

After much speculation, Director Paul Feig (BRIDESMAIDS) took to Twitter today to set the rumours straight!  We already heard about GHOSTBUSTERS III being developed.  We know Bill Murray’s out.  And we know original Director-turned-Toronto Restauranteur Ivan Reitman is in via a Producer’s capacity. And we already heard about it potentially starring an all-female Cast.  But where’s the proof?  Feig dishes the details in less than 140 characters.

Read Feig‘s Tweet below:

It’s official. I’m making a new Ghostbusters & writing it with @katiedippold & yes, it will star hilarious women. That’s who I’m gonna call.

For those who don’t know, Katie Dippold as a Writer, paired with Feig on hilarious 2013 Box Office Hit THE HEAT starring Sandra Bullock and Melissa McCarthy which went-on to earn $228 million worldwide.  And we know McCarthy and Feig already have an amazing working relationship judging by the mentioned Film and the massive $288-million-grossing success of BRIDESMAIDS.  Hence it’s safe to say McCarthy for sure will star in this?  But who are these other “hilarious women” he speaks of?

Whom would you like to see star in GHOSTBUSTERS III?

Sony Pictures will be releasing GHOSTBUSTERS III, still without a confirmed release date.
