Q&A: Laughing along with the wickedly funny ‘Ghostbusters’
Associated PressLOS ANGELES — It takes all of 30 seconds for Melissa McCarthy, Leslie Jones and Kate McKinnon to start cracking each other up — and anyone else lucky enough to be in the room with all that infectious energy. What strange sequence of events has taken place that’s brought me in the same room as Bill Murray?’ Jones: My favorite scene was when was arguing with Bill, and I’m like, ‘That’s right! You tell him!’ And then I realized, ‘Oh, you’re not watching a movie.’ McCarthy: I think you said, ‘That’s right, Melissa.’ And I’m like, ‘We’re in character, babe.’ AP: Was Chris Hemsworth able to hold his own? She would often, an hour before we were about to finish, say, ‘Oh, I’m going to be late to my ukulele session,’ or ‘I have to cancel my knitting class.’ Jones: Tennis. Kristen said something like, ‘I had a glass of wine and 18 veggie chips.’ Everyone said what they were doing and they were all super lame.
