Paul Feig Responds to ‘Ghostbusters’ Troll: “Go F*ck Yourself”
Paul Feig has been under fan attack ever since he was named as the director of the new Ghostbusters.
When it was revealed that the new ‘busters would be all female (Melissa McCarthy, Kristen Wiig, Kate McKinnon, and Leslie Jones), awful, vile, misogynistic hatred was tossed at Feig through social media. The amount of trash sent his way would have me closing my account, but Feig instead took to Twitter to call out some of the shit-bags who harass him. He even told one to “go fuck yourself.” Awesome.
It sucks that Feig has been pushed to the point of responding, but it is nice to see some trolls get called out for their mean-spirited and hypocritical assaults.
Then you should embrace a new generation getting their own version. GB is a positive force. Your negativity isn’t. https://t.co/MOKZpLLIBo

And since I’m on a roll, you, sir, are the biggest ass of them all. Seriously. You shit on all your former heroes. https://t.co/8BMi9YxZ5n — Paul Feig (@paulfeig) September 23, 2015
You all have no idea what we did, so stop acting like you do. Enough is enough. Just let this movie happen. #enough https://t.co/lBZGHaNEbz

You’ve been ranting at me and my cast for months with misogyny and insults. So go fuck yourself. Goodnight. #enough https://t.co/r3XNfWP68c — Paul Feig (@paulfeig) September 23, 2015
He ends his rant by throwing some love at the supporters. Those people clearly have seen some of Feig’s work, including the surprisingly funny Spy. I think this can be great, assuming the rash of cameos don’t throw a wrench in the spokes.
I read all your tweets & love them. Thanks for the continuing support. I just suddenly hit the wall with the haters. https://t.co/sWAQkbBt6O

Sony recently moved Ghostbusters by a week into a new July 15, 2016 slot.
Sony returns to their own Marvel universe with the upcoming Kraven the Hunter, which has been bumped all over the release schedule. This week, it’s been bumped once more.
There was a time when Sony was going to unleash Kraven in theaters in October 2023, but the film was then bumped to August 2024. It’ll now release on December 13, 2024.
Kraven the Hunter will be the very first Marvel movie from Sony to be released into theaters with an “R” rating, with lots of bloody violence being promised.
Aaron Taylor-Johnson stars as the title character, Marvel’s ultimate predator.
“Kraven the Hunter is the visceral story about how and why one of Marvel’s most iconic villains came to be. Set before his notorious vendetta with Spider-Man, Aaron Taylor-Johnson stars as the titular character in the R-rated film.”
Ariana DeBose will play Calypso in the upcoming Kraven the Hunter movie.
Christopher Abbott (Possessor) is playing The Foreigner, with Levi Miller (Better Watch Out) also on board. Alessandro Nivola (The Many Saints of Newark) will play another villain, but character details are under wraps. Russell Crowe and Fred Hechinger also star.
J.C. Chandor (A Most Violent Year) is directing Kraven the Hunter.
The screenplay was written by Art Marcum & Matt Holloway and Richard Wenk.
