Ghostbusters: Tonne of new footage released revealing more of film’s plot
Character vignettes reveal more about each character
Despite having an all-star cast including Melissa McCarthy, Kristen Wiig, Kate McKinnon, and Leslie Jones, the Ghostbusters reboot is getting a lot of hate.
The film’s trailer quickly became the most disliked trailer on YouTube, leading to Sony changing their marketing strategy a fair bit.
Recently, they released four character videos, detailing each team member’s personality from the perspective of director Paul Feig and the cast.
Surprisingly, each video consists of a lot of new footage, revealing more of the film’s plot; like in the original, the world will first reject the idea of Ghosts and the Ghostbusters, but will eventually need them to save New York from a Stay-Puft-like ghost.
The cast appeared on Jimmy Kimmel alongside the cast of the original, with Bill Murray praising the new film, saying it's a “tough movie to pull off”. An extended clip was also shown, as well as all eight of them dancing to the theme tune.
