Actors Melissa McCarthy and Kristen Wiig among other cast members of Paul Feig's upcoming "Ghostbusters" film helped raise spirits at a hospital in Boston.
McCarthy, Wigg, Kate McKinnon and Leslie Jones wore their familiar suits and proton packs at Tufts Medical Center, where they posed for photographs with patients. The hospital shared images on its Facebook and Twitter pages on Saturday, reports hollywoodreporter.com.
"Floating Hospital for Children at Tufts Medical Center patients got a huge surprise today when Ghostbusters stars Melissa McCarthy, Kristen Wiig, Kate McKinnon and Leslie Jones came to visit! Thank you for taking the time out of filming today to put a big smile on our patients faces! ?#?WhoYouGonnaCall? ?#?Ghostbusters?," read the Facebook post.
A number of film stars have appeared in costume to help cheer up hospital patients this year, including Johnny Depp dressing as Jack Sparrow in Australia, along with Chris Evans (Captain America) and Chris Pratt (Star-Lord) donning their outfits in Seattle.
The new "Ghostbusters" film, which is currently in production in Boston, is slated to release on July 22, 2016.
