The first details on the new Ghostbusters story emerge as filming starts!

Filming has started for director Paul Feig's Ghostbusters in Boston this week (though the film takes place in New York City) and details about the story have started to emerge.

Here are the first details about the new Ghostbusters reboot:

"Melissa McCarthy and Kristen Wiig will play unknown authors who publish a book asserting that ghosts are real. Their writing gains unwelcome attention a few years later, after Wiig lands a teaching position at Columbia University, and she’s soon laughed out of academia. The two later team with supernatural sleuths played by Kate McKinnon and Leslie Jones, and save the day when ghosts invade Manhattan."

There are also rumors circulating that Slimer could be returning for this film. I loved Slimer when I was a little kid so this is really cool news if it is true.
