Midweek Mouth-Off: Who’s your dream team for the female Ghostbusters reboot?

midweek mouth off

With Monday’s news that Paul Feig has plans to reboot the Ghostbusters franchise with a female team, the first question on everyone’s minds is obviously about the actresses that would take on the mantle. Lots of names have been bandied about, from Sandra Bullock (who worked with Feig on The Heat) to Melissa McCarthy (who has worked with Feig on pretty much everything). But obviously with the project still in its infancy, nothing solid has come through yet, which leaves it up to us.

If I were to pick anyone to take the lead role in this reboot, it would be Zoe Saldana. Going on gut instinct, she’s currently sci-fi’s leading lady, but she might come across as too serious. On the other hand, you don’t want someone too comedic, so Darryn’s happy so long as anyone but Melissa McCarthy gets it.

So, who would be on your ideal team of female Ghostbusters?

    Have the new team be led/put together by Sigouney Weaver’s character from the first film. Boom! Fanboys happy AND guaranteed money in the bank!

      Or it blows and fanboys tear it to shreds! Anyway, if Rick Moranis can’t make it then I am opposed to reusing any of the old cast.

          Lol! 🙂 But seriously, if Reitman isn’t even involved anymore, why not just come up with a new idea for a ghostbusting team of women? This still feels like the studio trying to kill two ostriches with a handful of sand.

    Michelle Rodriguez, Tina Fey, Zoe Deschanel (she can geek up and play Ivan Reitman’s role) and Melissa McCarthy. Just please, please no Rebel Wilson.

    As long as it has Jennifer Lawrance in it I am happy.

    Ohhh, this is tricky! I’d like to see Sandra Bullock, Lena Headey and Katee Sackhoff. Awesome.
