Paul Feig’s Other Space, his upcoming Yahoo series, is starting to shape up as it’s gathered up a great cast in Joel Hodgson and Trace Beaulieu from a famous comedy series set in space, Mystery Science Theater 3000, in addition to a great bunch in Eugene Cordero, Neil Casey, Milana Vayntrub, Conor Leslie, Bess Rous, and Karen Soni.

Feig is going to delve into what it would be like if man explored most of the universe is the type, which leaves plenty of room for echoes of Undeclared and Freaks and Geeks.

We’re absolutely looking forward to this when it comes around next year.

While the fate of a Ghostbusters sequel still hangs in the balance, a new reboot is definitely moving forward with Paul Feig.

Announced today by Feig himself on Twitter, he will be making a reboot of the franchise with an all female Ghostbusters squad. Katie Dippold, writer of The Heat and Parks and Recreation, is set to co-write the script with him, which means there is more traction in The Ghostbusters franchise towards seeing something on screen in the not so distant future.

Hopefully, that’s some time in late 2015/early 2016/soon so the drought of Ghostbusters in our lives can be over.

Paul Feig to Produce Animated ‘Peanuts’ Feature for Fox

Charlie Brown is hitting the big screen as seen by the one and only Paul Feig. The fact that it’s not live action is a good start (i.e. Smurfs), but we’re also excited that someone like Feig is overseeing the adaptation.

Paul Feig Developing Female Lead Spy Comedy ‘Susan Cooper’

Many other publications are describing it as a “female James Bond comedy,” which makes us think more along the lines of female Austin Powers or, for you cinephiles out there, the exact opposite of In Like Flint.

We’ll be interested to see who plays the lead, especially if it’s Kristen Wiig because then it’d be more like a female Get Smart.
