Annie Potts to cameo in Ghostbusters

September 20, 2015 by Gary Collinson

Yesterday it was revealed that Ernie Hudson is set to join fellow original Ghostbusters Dan Aykroyd and Bill Murray for a cameo in Paul Feig’s upcoming female-led reboot, and now the Boston Herald is reporting that Annie Potts is also set to feature in the film.

Potts played the Ghosbusters’ receptionist Janine Melnitz in the 1984 original and its 1989 sequel, as well as voicing the character in the 2009 videogame. She is apparently set to make an appearance as a hotel clerk in the reboot.
