2016 female-led 'Ghostbusters' reboot failed due to backlash from Trump supporters, according to director Paul Feig.
Director Paul Feig has attributed the failure of the 2016 female-led 'Ghostbusters' reboot to backlash from Donald Trump supporters. He claims that many critics opposed the film due to its female leads, a decision made after Bill Murray declined to return for a sequel. Feig insists he did not intend for the film to be politically charged, but its release during the 2016 election led to perceptions of political overtones. Some argue that the film's quality also contributed to its poor reception.
