No one had a better time rocking out to the Ghostbusters theme song than the original Ghostbuster himself, Bill Murray. Last night on Jimmy Kimmel Live the original cast – including Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd, Ernie Hudson, and Annie Potts – of the 1984 classic film Ghostbusters joined the new reboot cast starring Melissa McCarthy, Kristen Wiig, Leslie Jones, and Kate McKinnon for a wildly entertaining Ghostbusters theme song dance party.
Bill Murray and Kristen Wiig ignited the dance party jumping up and down on stage like they were in a mosh pit at a rock concert. As the song played on, Murray managed to pull McCarthy and McKinnon to the stage to continue the dance party, and eventually the entire cast of the old and new Ghostbusters movies joined the party much to the audience’s entertainment.

After the theme song dance session, all 8 actors sat down for a joint interview to promote the upcoming film. Due to the popularity of the original Ghostbusters movie, the entire cast of both movies knew rebooting the classic franchise was going to be no easy task. However, the original cast believes the all-female cast pulled it off passing with flying colors. “It was only because I knew these girls were funny,” said Murray, “This is a tough movie to pull off because it’s a big concept, there’s a lot on the plate, there’s a lot of expectation.” After watching the film Bill Murray also gave a glowing review stating, “[We] were screaming, cheering like we were at a sporting event.”
Look for the new Ghostbusters film in theaters July 15.
