While it has been a few months since it was confirmed that Bridesmaids director Paul Feig will direct an all-female Ghostbusters reboot, casting hasn’t been set. He’s been busy in that time though and both Rebel Wilson and Jennifer Lawrence confirmed that they met with him.
In an interview with the Today Show to promote Night at the Museum: Secret of the Tomb, Wilson said she did meet with Feig. However, she said she won’t sign on until she sees the final script.
“I would even do that without the money truck,” she added, though. “I'd do that for free. I probably shouldn't say that live on TV.”
Lawrence told MTV News that she also met with Feige.
“I actually met with the director,” the Hunger Games star said. “I had dinner with him. I sure did.”
However, Lawrence might have just been talking about a general meeting with Feige. She later admitted in the interview that she didn’t even realize there was a Ghostbusters II.
Feig officially got the directing job in August after countless false starts on Ghostbusters III. Bill Murray has suggested that the film star Linda Cardellini, Emma Stone, Melissa McCarthy and Kristen Wiig.
