Ghostbusters 3 director Paul Feig gave a Twitter hint at which Hollywood stars will make up the female cast of the classic movie remake.

Feig tweeted a photo Tuesday of these comedians:

  • Melissa McCarthy.
  • Kristen Wiig.
  • Kate McKinnon.
  • Leslie Jones.

A few hours later, he tweeted: "In other news, #Ghostbusters will be hitting theatres July 22, 2016. Save the date!"

In October, Feig said his remake will centre on a cast of "hilarious women." At the time, Bill Murray, who starred in the original film, suggested McCarthy and Wiig as options for female leads.

"Melissa [McCarthy] would be a spectacular Ghostbuster," Murray said. "And Kristen Wiig is so funny — God, she's funny."

Feig previously worked with McCarthy and Wiig, stars of Bridesmaids.

McKinnon and Jones are on TV's Saturday Night Live.
