When Chris Hemsworth Revealed That Ghostbusters Helped Him Reinvent Thor In The Marvel Universe

Chris Hemsworth Shared Ghostbusters Experience For Thor ( Photo Credit – Instagram ) Back in 2016, Chris Hemsworth took a detour from hammer-throwing superhero action to join an all-new kind of team. He signed on for Ghostbusters, the reboot of the iconic ’80s franchise, this time led by an all-female cast including Kristen Wiig, Melissa McCarthy, Kate McKinnon, and Leslie Jones. Hemsworth wasn’t the main lead of the film, but he still had quite an intriguing character to play. He portrayed Kevin, the group’s dim-witted but lovable receptionist, and on the surface, it might’ve seemed like a step down for a Marvel star. But as it turns out, Ghostbusters taught Hemsworth something crucial, changing the way he approached acting. In interviews with Esquire, Hemsworth has spoken openly about how much the Ghostbusters’ experience meant to him. For an actor who had been used to carefully sticking to the script, working with director Paul Feig pushed him to try and learn improvisation. “That was some of the most fun I’ve ever had on set,” Hemsworth said. …

Ghostbusters star Dan Ackroyd Reveals WHY The Original Might Never Return; Yet Says ‘I’m Always Available’

Dan Aykroyd, one of the original Ghostbusters stars, has shared his thoughts on whether he and Bill Murray will return for more films in the franchise. Aykroyd played Ray Stantz in the iconic movies and made his latest appearance in Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire. However, he expressed doubts about reprising his role in future projects. When speaking to the New York Post, Aykroyd explained that he doesn’t see the original cast returning again. “I don’t see that coming,” he said, adding that the franchise now has a new generation of characters and fresh ideas to carry it forward. “They’ve got a whole new cast, and they’ve got whole new ideas,” Aykroyd continued. He also voiced his support for this direction, saying, “They should advance it beyond the originals.” While Aykroyd feels it’s time to pass the torch, his co-star Ernie Hudson, who plays Winston Zeddemore, has a more open outlook. Earlier this year, Hudson told GamesRadar+ that he’s always available for more Ghostbusters projects. “I haven’t heard anything [about a sequel], but I’m the last guy …

Kumail Nanjiani On His Character In Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire

Kumail Nanjiani known for The Big Sick and Stuber is an Oscar and Emmy-nominated writer, comedian and critically acclaimed actor. The artist made his way into the Ghostbuster franchise with the recent installation Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire and played the role of Nadeem. Talking about his character, he said, “What’s great about Nadeem is that he encompasses what makes Ghostbusters special, he’s a slacker. He’s completely discounted by everyone around him. And he’s the only one who can tackle this big, terrifying demon who can scare people to death just by looking at them.” The actor even went on to explain why he loves his character so much and said, “That’s what I love – he’s a very grounded, normal character. Some might call him a loser, and he doesn’t like it, but can’t deny it. And then suddenly he has to defeat this massive demon.” In the film, Kumail will be seen facing off with some of the bigger ghosts.

Movie Review: ‘Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire’ clears a low bar | Hollywood

Forty years after “Ghostbusters” and following a string of sequels that never measured up to the 1984 original — beginning all the way back with 1989’s “Ghostbusters II” — it’s fair to wonder, well, who else ought we to call? It may be time to, if not give up the ghost entirely, at least give a flip through the ol’ rolodex. HT Image But as the lackluster 2021 installment, “Ghostbusters: Afterlife” showed, the half life of most film franchises today is an ever-lengthening long tail of diminishing returns. Though the options are many, sucking “Ghostbusters” dry would make a prime exhibit in Hollywood’s nostalgia fix. Hindustan Times – your fastest source for breaking news! Read now. Still, it’s not quite as simple as that. I’m glad for the female-led 2016 “Ghostbusters.” Aside from prompting a minor culture war, it assembled the best comic ensemble since the original with Melissa McCarthy, Kristen Wiig, Kate McKinnon, Leslie Jones and, yes, Chris Hemsworth. And as easy as it might be to label the new one, “Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire,” …
