But it seems that “Thor” star Chris Hemsworth, who plays the receptionist in the reboot of the franchise, will see a bit more action.

Hemsworth is nearly unrecognizable with swept back hair and thick square glasses (are the Ghostbusters still stuck in the 1980s?), and we love it. This movie just keeps getting better and better.
But he’s supposed to be a secretary.
So this could mean a classic storyline where a previously left in the lurch character gets his chance (or steals his chance) to shine in a plot twist where he helps out the team.
Nevertheless, a part of that shake up involves the “busters new receptionist, who won’t be an updated version of Annie Potts” laconic Janine Melnitz, but will instead be played by Chris Hemsworth.

The uniform that Hemsworth is wearing is similar to while his co-stars Leslie Jones, Melissa McCarthy, Kristen Wiig and Kate McKinnon wear in the Paul Feig-directed drama, reported Vulture. Years later, after one of them becomes an accomplished teacher at Columbia, the book resurfaces and she’s laughed out of her position, forced to reunite with her friend and two new pals to take on the very real ghost threat.
