Well ok then, photos are starting to surface from the upcoming reboot of the beloved comedy franchise Ghostbusters.  This time around, the cast of mostly women will be picking up the packs and doing their best NOT to cross the streams.

Confirmed cast so far as we know it are Melissa McCarthy, Kristen Wiig, Kate McKinnon, Cecily Strong, Leslie Jones, and Chris Hemsworth.  Recently, the rumor surfaced that original Ghostbuster’s alum Dan Aykroyd and Ernie Hudson might make a return.

Director/writer Paul Feig posted this image today on twitter:

Holy smokes guys, Kate McKinnon looks like Egon from the cartoon!

We already knew that Chris Hemsworth will be playing the ladies’ receptionist, because Feig announced it. What do you think? Might this reboot work? Or will they end up slimed?
