A look back at the best quotes from the 1984 film 'Ghostbusters'_  by [Nolan Feeney](https://time.com/author/nolan-feeney/)  ## Nolan Feeney Aug 3, 2014 3:32 PM UTC  Director Paul Feig Director Paul FeigMichael Loccisano—Getty Images  by [Nolan Feeney](https://time.com/author/nolan-feeney/)  ## Nolan Feeney Aug 3, 2014 3:32 PM UTC Ectoplasm, meet estrogen. Though there have not been any official negotiations, _Bridesmaids_ director Paul Feig is reportedly in talks with Sony about [rebooting the _Ghostbusters_ series with female leads](http://variety.com/2014/film/news/paul-feig-ghostbusters-comedy-reboot-1201274332/). The movie will not be _Ghostbusters 3_ or a direct sequel to the 1980s films, _Variety_ reports. The status of _Ghostbusters 3_ is currently unknown after Ivan Reitman, who directed the original films, dropped out of the project earlier this year. Dan Aykroyd has long wanted to make the third film, though former co-star Bill Murray [hasn’t been so keen on participating](http://grantland.com/hollywood-prospectus/ghostbusters-sequel-no-one-wants-will-proceed-without-bill-murray-for-real-this-time-says-desperate-aykroyd/) in the past. A third member of the original Ghostbusters, Harold Ramis, [died earlier this year](http://time.com/9362/harold-remis-dead-director-ghostbusters-dies-at-age-69/). It’s unclear when this hypothetical Feig-helmed _Ghostbusters_ reboot would be expected to hit theaters, as the director has a number of upcoming projects, including the Melissa McCarthy comedy _Spy_ in 2015 and various scripts in the works at Fox. Sony would not comment to _Variety_ on the alleged talks. But if a #GhostbustersReboot meme takes off a la [#TrueDetectiveSeason2](http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/subcultures/true-detective), there will be enough hypothetical dream casting to keep fans busy until whenever it arrives. \[[_Variety_](http://variety.com/2014/film/news/paul-feig-ghostbusters-comedy-reboot-1201274332/)\] Ghostbusters Reboot Eyes Bridesmaids Director Paul Feig to Helm ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/3075924/paul-feig-ghostbusters-female-leads/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/3075924/paul-feig-ghostbusters-female-leads/"},"headline":"Report: Ghostbusters Reboot May Star Female Leads","datePublished":"2014-08-03T15:32:55.000Z","dateModified":"2026-08-04T08:00:59.158Z","description":"Bridesmaids director Paul Feig reportedly in talks to direct","url":"https://time.com/3075924/paul-feig-ghostbusters-female-leads/","keywords":["movies","Ghostbusters"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt0a85fbdaa077126b/69869e321eebf770023721ed/182616118.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Nolan Feeney","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/nolan-feeney/"}],"articleSection":"Entertainment","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt0a85fbdaa077126b/69869e321eebf770023721ed/182616118.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"\"Gravity\" New York Premiere - Inside Arrivals","caption":"\"Gravity\" New York Premiere - Inside Arrivals","creditText":"Michael Loccisano—Getty Images","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/section/entertainment/","name":"Entertainment"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"/tag/movies/","name":"movies"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":3,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/3075924/paul-feig-ghostbusters-female-leads/","name":"Report: Ghostbusters Reboot May Star Female Leads"}}]},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"VideoObject","name":"The Best 'Ghostbusters' Moments in 2 Minutes","description":"A look back at the best quotes from the 1984 film 'Ghostbusters'","thumbnailUrl":"https://cdn.jwplayer.com/v2/media/SZgiTGHM/poster.jpg?width=720","uploadDate":"2014-06-06T16:10:25.000Z","contentUrl":"https://cdn.jwplayer.com/manifests/SZgiTGHM.m3u8","embedUrl":"https://time.com/3075924/paul-feig-ghostbusters-female-leads/","duration":"PT1M50S","potentialAction":{"@type":"SeekToAction","target":"https://time.com/3075924/paul-feig-ghostbusters-female-leads/?jw_start={seek_to_second_number}","startOffset-input":"required name=seek_to_second_number"}}] ```
