He might not have been fully supportive of the idea of the new Ghostbusters when it was originally announced, but Ernie “Winston Zeddemore” Hudson changed his mind and has now thrown his weight behind – and into – Paul Feig’s version of the story, showing up on set to cameo on the last day of shooting.
No information has been released as to whether he’s playing Winston again, though we doubt it since fellow former ‘busters Dan Aykroyd and Bill Murray have also cropped up on set, neither of whom playing their original characters. Maybe they’re going meta and he plays Leslie Jones’ disapproving father, who comes around to the idea once he sees the new Ghostbusters in action.

Feig’s film, which features Jones, Kate McKinnon, Kristen Wiig and Melissa McCarthy as four women who go into the paranormal elimination business, are laughed at, then triumph when their theories about a rising level of spectral nuisances in New York are proved correct, now counts all three of the surviving Ghostbusters for cameo appearances, at least during shooting. Whether they make it into the final cut is another matter.
With a script by Feig and Katie Dippold and Chris Hemsworth, Michael Kenneth Williams, Andy Garcia, Nate Corddry, Cecily Strong, Matt Walsh and Neil Casey in the cast, the new Ghostbusters will bring its neutron wands to bear on our screens on July 15 next year.
