From Freaks and Geeks to Bridesmaids to Spy and the upcoming Ghostbusters reboot, writer-director Paul Feig keeps upping his profile — and his production budgets — exponentially.

Days before the female-led Ghostbusters wrapped, Feig called Yahoo Movies to talk about the comedy starring Melissa McCarthy, Kristen Wiig, Leslie Jones, and Kate McKinnon — with cameos from Ghostbusters originals Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd, Ernie Hudson, and, just announced by the director on Friday, Sigourney Weaver.
