No PG-13 approach here.

Besides the fearsome foursome, Ghostbusters also stars Chris Hemsworth as their secretary, Andy Garcia as the mayor of New York City, and Neil Casey as the villain, plus Cecily Strong, Michael K. Williams, and Matt Walsh.

Also appearing, maybe just as a cameo will be the original stars, including Dan Aykroyd and Ernie Hudson.

Ghostbusters arrives in theaters July 15, 2016.
