Ghostbusters Clips & Featurettes Released

With about a month to go until its worldwide release, Sony Pictures has released the first clips from Paul Feig's female-led Ghostbusters reboot/remake, as well as a pair of featurettes.

In the first clip, Patty Tolan (Leslie Jones), a former subway worker-turned Ghostbuster, is excited to show her new co-workers a hearse she got from her Uncle's funeral home, which will act as the company car. In the following clip, the hearse has been given an Ecto-1 makeover, upsetting Patty, and we hear a sample of Fall Out Boy and Missy Elliott's cover of Ray Parker Jr.'s theme song.

As for the featurettes, one focuses on introducing the new Ghostbusters and the other one shows off the new Ecto-1.
