We still don’t have an official trailer for the 2016 Ghostbusters, but now we know a little bit more about which ghosts might show up, according to Michael K. Williams. Speaking to EW, Williams described a fictional altercation that made him super-excited:
I got to work with Slimer, dude. Like Slimer!!! I’m in a scene with Slimer! I’m a huge Ghostbusters fan and it was a dream come true.
Williams will play “the FBI agent who works for the mayor” — and he’ll also be playing the role of the guy who underestimates the new all-female team: “Our whole thing is, we’re going to tell the people it was a flash in the sky and ‘Run along little women with your ghosts, we got this.'” That’s right — our heroines will be bustin’ institutional sexism and Slimer.
Williams went on,
That was a dream job. They’re at the top of their game, man. I had the pleasure of working with Kristen Wiig and Kate McKinnon on a show on IFC called Spoils Before Dying. So, I had a relationship with them already. Leslie Jones, you meet her once, you feel you’ve known her your whole life. She penetrates any walls or any barriers you may have, she goes right through that, right to your heart chakra. And Melissa, she’s just a gem. I have so much respect for these ladies.
More importantly, Slimer is coming back, which lends way more credence to the rumors that Hi-C’s Ecto Cooler flavor will return as well. They won’t even have to change the logo! Or the advertisements!
Okay, so, maybe they should change the advertisements.
