Ghostbusters director promises not to reboot another classic

'No, no, no. No, I will not'

Love or loathe the Ghostbusters reboot, we can probably all agree on one thing: it would be nice if Hollywood focused on original ideas instead of recycling old ones.

Well, we can count out director Paul Feig resurrecting more classic films at least.

Asked when he would even consider reimagining another classic film property, he told The Huffington Post: “No, no, no. No, I will not,” drawing attention to the fact that most of his filmography is original material.

“This one was just too tempting because I knew we could do something with it that was exciting,” he added.

Feig has probably had more than his fill of remakes after Ghostbusters, which saw anger and support in equal measure, all amounting to a huge furore you probably wouldn’t be keen to five back into.

He’s upbeat about the response though, saying: “It’s such a validation for the years of false controversy.”

A new project we learned last week that he’s working on next sounds pretty intriguing, centring on a load of supermodels doing coke in the Chilean mountains.
