Paul Feig (Sabrina the Teenage Witch) was on a Television Critics Association (TCA) for Zoey’s Extraordinary Playlist. The NBC comedy stars Jane Levy as Zoey, a woman who sees people singing and dancing their innermost thoughts through popular songs. Feig is an executive producer on the series.
After the Zoey panel, Feig spoke with journalists further and /Film asked about his upcoming films and his thoughts about the upcoming Ghostbusters movie.
There’s already precedent for combining Ghostbusters
The success of Feig’s 2016 Ghostbusters movie, Answer The Call, has been unfortunately overshadowed by the toxic trolls complaining about the female Ghostbuster team of Kristen Wiig, Melissa McCarthy, Kate McKinnon and Leslie Jones. Reitman and Feig have supported each other’s films and Feig is hopeful his Ghostbusters can come back.
“I hope,” Feig said. “What’s so great, in the comic book world, they’ve done a lot of crossover ones where there’s like an interdimensional rip and our team joins up with the original Ghostbusters. So the fact that that’s already been laid and made comic book canon, anything could happen so who knows. I would love to see that team come back. We had so much fun making that movie, for whatever controversy it caused. The fact that so many kids love that, that we won the Nickelodeon Best Movie of the Year Award that year makes me very happy.”
That’s unlikely in this summer’s film, which has already wrapped filming, but wouldn’t that be the ultimate revenge.
