First Photo of the New Ghostbusters in Action
These ladies clearly ain’t afraid of no ghosts. Sony’s first official promotional shot for Ghostbusters (in theaters July 15) shows stars Melissa McCarthy, Kate McKinnon, Kristen Wiig, and Leslie Jones striking a confident pose, proton packs at the ready. Check it out above.

The new ghost-busting team appears to be standing in the lobby of a hotel, bringing to mind the scene from the original 1984 comedy when Bill Murray and company captured beverage-guzzling ghost Slimer in the ballroom of the fictional Sedgewick Hotel. Judging from the fog and ectoplasm-green light in the new pic, something supernatural is definitely lurking.
The photo was released this morning on Twitter via the fan account Planet Ghostbusters. Director Paul Feig also used Twitter to release a previous image of his stars on set (below), posing in front of the new incarnation of the classic Ghostbusters car, the Ecto-1.
Though his film isn’t out until next summer, Feig is already having a very Venkman Christmas, tweeting the photo below of himself in a Ghostbusters logo sweater with the caption “Trap the ghosts with streams of protons, fa la la la la la la la la!”
