Ghosts have been haunting New York City since 1984, but if Paul Feig were allowed to direct a sequel to his 2016 remake of Ghostbusters, he’d take the busting international.

“I definitely wanted us to go to another country,” Feig told Happy Sad Confused podcast. “Because when we were doing the press tour, the international press tour, every country the reporters would come with these drawings or artist renderings of that country’s ghosts. And every country has these really wild ghost stories and ghost characters that they scare kids with or keep people in line with. I really loved the idea of the Ghostbusters going to like Asia. There’s a lot of fun stuff that we could have done.”

Feig’s Ghostbusters ended with Leslie Jones‘ character teasing the return of Zuul. While it’s highly unlikely Feig would get back behind the camera, he assuredly added, “Maybe it will happen still?”

Frankly, I wouldn’t mind seeing Feig take another stab at the franchise under different circumstances. His film became the victim of hate in a violent political climate which turned many “fans” against the remake. Certainly, the whirlwind of drama is part of the film’s negative energy, which absolutely had a partial effect on its box office performance. Not to say the film is good or bad, but it would be nice to see the slate wiped clean and have Feig do something different with the franchise. Taking the ‘busters international and making them the fish out of water would be one helluva a unique turn for the characters.
