Ghostbusters: 21 WTF Moments In The Female Remake
6. Michael Kenneth Williams
It's always awful to see great actors wasted in tiny bit parts that add nothing to the film. That goes doubly for Michael Kenneth Williams - one of the break-out stars of The Wire, who simply hasn't lived up to his potential since that show ended.
In Ghostbusters he and his partner are presented as government stooges who come to keep an eye on the Ghostbusters to make sure they don't attract too much attention and make the Mayor look bad. They amount to babysitters, but they're not even given that responsibility fully as Cecily Strong's Mayoral aide all but renders them completely pointless.
They don't even get a single moment of dramatic tension before they're declawed and interest is taken away from them entirely, and the final insult comes when the possessed Kevin f*cks with them for a while and they just sort of disappear from the climax.
