Leslie Jones in talks to star in all-female 'Ghostbusters' reboot

It looks like the all-female Ghostbuster reboot is finally happening.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, the film is set to hit theaters in July 2016 and will star four of Hollywood’s best comedic actresses.

Melissa McCarthy, who was already in talks for one of the leads, has signed on for the Paul Feig-directed reboot, and Sony is now negotiating with Kristen Wiig as well as Saturday Night Live players Leslie Jones and Kate McKinnon, The Hollywood Reporter has learned.

Negotiations have not yet been finalized, but the film is scheduled to shoot this summer in New York City.
