We’ve been breaking a lot of stories behind Paul Feig’s Ghostbusters, which carries a dance number with the logo ghost, known as “Rowan.”
We also told you that Slimer was going to make an appearance, which shouldn’t be that much of a shock considering he’s the one sellable character (next to Stay Puft).
Michael K. Williams, the badass from “The Wire” and “Boardwalk Empire”, shocked us when he told EW that he has a scene with the little green spud!
“I’m not going to lie, working with Melissa, and Kristen, and Kate, was really dope. But 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.”
While he doesn’t go into detail about their encounter, he does reveal his role in the film, opening in theaters July 15, 2016.
“I play the FBI agent who works for the mayor. 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 was a dream job. They’re at the top of their game, man.”
Melissa McCarthy, Kristen Wiig, Kate McKinnon, and Leslie Jones are the new Ghostbusters; Feig has filmed cameos (in new roles) for many of the original cast, including Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd, Ernie Hudson, Annie Potts, and even Sigourney Weaver.
