I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

The cast for Jason Reitman’s upcoming Ghostbusters continues to expand. We previously reported that Carrie Coon, Finn Wolfhard, and Mckenna Grace would be on board along with the surviving members of the original Ghostbusters—Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd, Ernie Hudson, Annie Potts, and Sigourney Weaver. Now we’ve learned that Paul Rudd has joined the cast.

Variety doesn’t have any details on Rudd’s role, but Reitman said in a statement, “I’ve been wanting to work with Paul Rudd since my short film opened for ‘Wet Hot American Summer’ at Sundance. I’m thrilled he’ll be joining this new chapter in the original Ghostbusters universe.”

Plot details on the film are still scarce, but insiders tell Variety, “the story will be an extension of the original “Ghostbusters” and focus on a single mom and her family, with Coon playing the mom and Wolfhard playing her son.”

It’s okay. I have a feeling most ‘80s comedies are severely overrated by nostalgic middle-aged dudes.

I disagree. But I'm also not really looking forward to this new... whatever it is.
