New Ghostbusters character images revealed

More official, bad-ass character photos, along with a shot of the entire group together in a spooky hotel lobby, were revealed back in December.

Not much is known regarding the story of the new Ghostbusters film. The "main villain," played by Neil Casey, is still a mystery, but we do know that some of the ghostly threats these Ghostbusters will face include "Pilgrims, old-­timey sailors, Revolutionary War spirits, and even a couple of zoot­-suited gangsters."

It sounds interesting, but I'm waiting for a trailer before I cast full judgment. With the new Ghostbusters due in theaters on July 15, 2016, I assume we'll see some sort of a teaser soon-ish.

Chris Hemsworth as 'the Secretary' Kevin

Much of the original Ghostbusters cast will also have cameos in Feig's upcoming reboot, including Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd, and Ernie Hudson.

Leslie Jones – Patty Tolan

“Ghost tracker, municipal historian, metaphysical commando.”

Melissa McCarthy – Abby Yates

"Paranormal researcher, supernatural scientist, entity trapper."

Kristen Wiig – Erin Gilbert

"Particle physicist, academic firebrand, spectral warrior."

The official Ghostbusters website has undergone a facelift to incorporate Paul Feig's upcoming installment in the franchise.

With the revamp comes a new portion of the site specifically dedicated to the 2016 reboot, featuring the female-driven squad of Kristen Wiig (Erin Gilbert), Melissa McCarthy (Abby Yates), Leslie Jones (Patty Tolan), Kate McKinnon (Jillian Holtzman). New photos of each of the new Ghostbusters, along with their well-dressed secretary Chris Hemsworth (gender-swapping the role made famous by Annie Potts in the original), have also been revealed.

Check out the new images in the gallery below.

Kate McKinnon – Jillian Holtzman

“Nuclear engineer, munitions expert, proton wrangler.”
