Rebel Wilson
, who is best known for playing 'Fat Amy' in the Pitch Perfect franchise, was a guest on the Today show promoting her new movie Night at the Museum : Secret of the Tomb. During the interview, Matt Lauer inquired about Wilson meeting with her former Bridesmaids director Paul Feig for his upcoming Ghostbusters reboot, which will feature an all-female team.

I have had a meeting,” Wilson revealed. “But who knows? They will have to look at the script when it’s finished…"

When Lauer asked if they had offered Wilson a "money truck" to be in it, she replied, "I would even do that without the money truck. I'd do that for free. I probably shouldn't say that live on TV."

She is almost as unbearable as Andy Samberg. Yelling and being awkward is not funny.

She's like Jonah Hill, but without the talent, humor, charisma, oscar nominations. So no she's nothing like Jonah Hill. Nevermind

She is not as bad as Melissa McCarthy, who has lost a ton of weight, but still kind of annoying, we really don't want an all female led ghostbusters though

Maybe she threatens people with, "Give me this role or I'll tell people we slept together!"

@uneedarevlation does she really need to ? if we take all that cluster[frick] from sony as word in how the industry works, it isn't surprising that they go after the unfunny heavy set chick who's constantly cast in comedies for some reason. one need to not go any farther than them actually rebooting the [frick]ing ghostbusters.

i still have my fingers crossed that there's something of a gb universe, so that we can still have the possibility of them writing one good enough for murray.

The great thing about the original Ghostbusters was that all of the cast were actors who knew how to be funny. The story and the idea carried the story and made it great without slapstick or fat jokes. I absolutely love Ghostbusters but it sounds like this movie is going to become another cliche "complete idiots who somehow manage to save the day" like all the garbage current comedies.

This is going to be terrible, they need to go in a totally different direction and make it dark, put one even two female ghostbusters in there but not all 4! This will be up there with green lantern and cat woman.

She could actually play a female version of Poppin' Fresh guys.

If not, get rid of her. Get some real actresses. This movie looks set to be an insult to the original Ghostbusters movies.
