Ghostbusters: Ranking Every Character From Worst To Best

19. Harold Filmore (Charles Dance)

Little has been made of the fact that Charles Dance is even in this movie, but he has a few brief scenes as Erin Gilbert's (Kristen Wiig) employer at her University, who disapproves of her ghost-hunting escapades before eventually firing her from academia and denying her tenure.

Dance sadly doesn't get much opportunity to be the funnyman here: he plays it totally straight as the script requires, though it's written to be a fairly blandly functional role, hence why an actor of his caliber ends up bang in last place.

He's certainly not bad, but it's just a disappointingly forgettable role for such a talented performer.
