Paul Feig has shared more information on the upcoming Ghostbusters movie, stressing it will be a complete reboot that won't even feature cameos of the original characters.

“ I love the first one so much I don’t want to do anything to ruin the memory of that.

Speaking to Entertainment Weekly , the director confirmed we should expect a new group of characters set in a world that may seem familiar but features the trappings of our modern society, especially when it comes to the science involved with the ghosts."I love origin stories," he said. "That’s my favorite thing. I love the first one so much I don’t want to do anything to ruin the memory of that. So it just felt like, let’s just restart it because then we can have new dynamics. I want the technology to be even cooler. I want it to be really scary, and I want it to happen in our world today that hasn’t gone through it so it’s like, oh my God what’s going on?""Everything is up for grabs right now," he explained. "I look at this the same way a superhero movie launches where it’s always fun to see, like, what are they going to do with the costumes this time? What are they going to do with the hardware this time? It’s not going to be, here is the exact same stuff. It’s also not going to go, screw you, if you like that stuff, it’s all completely different. We’re going to have fun with it, but again, bring it into our time period. I’m a big hardware nerd when it comes to sci-fi and all of that so I love all the gear and I love all that. We’re really going to have fun with playing with the science of it. I think fans will be very happy with what we do because it has fun with what came before but it’s new. It’s just a new, fun take on it." Earlier this week we learned Kate Dippold will co-write the female-led film with Feig. Initially, the film was intended to be Ghostbusters 3 , but the death of Harold Ramis and a number of other setbacks eventually turned the project into a complete reboot. In August, we learned that Feig was being considered to direct the film that would feature an all-female leading cast.For more on Ghostbusters, check out the conversation IGN had about Dan Aykroyd's comments on Up at Noon
