It's 30 years since they famously fought evil spirits on the streets of New York City.
And six of The Ghostbusters - stars Bill Murray, Dan Akroyd, Ernie Hudson, Sigourney Weaver, Annie Potts and director Ivan Reitman - got together to celebrate at a photo shoot for Entertainment Weekly's reunions issue.
Bill, Dan, Ernie and Sigourney are on the cover of the November 14-21 edition, which hits the shelves on Friday.

Ganging up: The Ghostbusters stars including Bill Murray, Dan Akroyd, Ernie Hudson and Sigourney Weaver got together to celebrate the iconic film's 30th anniversary in the cover shoot for Entertainment Weekly
Missing from the event were co-stars William Atherton and Rick Moranis. Sadly, Harold Ramis died in February, aged 69.
Meanwhile, the gang, minus Dan, appeared on NBC's Today on Wednesday morning talking about what it was like to perform in the iconic film and its 1989 sequel, Ghostbusters II, starting a multi-million dollar industry that includes cartoon TV shows, video games and merchandise.
Today host and self-confessed Ghostbusters fan Al Roker obviously had a ball as he asked probably the most important question: What made the slime that the ghosts covered the Busters with in the movies?
The stars laughed when Bill listed 'corn syrup and starch and some sort of an adhesive and a kind of a poison that's used on chinch bugs.'

And now: Director Ivan Reitman, along with Ghostbusters co-stars Annie Potts, Ernie, Sigourney and Bill appeared on NBC's Today on Wednesday morning
Ernie recalled Bill's easy rapport with New Yorkers who turned out to watch the filming.
'He just sort of embraced it and, you know, all the years after - it's how I relate to fans. I was watching how he just - they loved him. And he always gave back. And I was always really impressed with that.'
And Bill revealed: 'I knew it was going to be a huge movie. At that point, we were still watching Yankee Doodle Dandy on TV, so I thought we had a shot.'

Rumours of a Ghostbusters III have circulated in Hollywood since the 1990s but nothing coalesced.
Asked why, Bill deadpanned: 'I say the money's not right!' He added: 'it's really hard to recreate something that was so beautiful, so wonderful.
'The studio would like to make a movie and continue the franchise, and I hear that there's going to be one that's all women,' he said.

What's in a name: Bill talked about director Paul Feig's upcoming Ghostbusters III, which is set to feature an all-female team of Busters, that Sigourney said should be called 'Ghostbabes or Ghostbuster Babes'
Sigourney jumped in with two possible titles, Ghostbabes and Ghostbuster Babes.
Director Paul Feig is rebooting Ghostbusters as an origins story with a female cast that has yet to be announced although Lena Dunham, Mindy Kaling, Melissa McCarthy and Emma Stone are interested, according to Entertainment Weekly.
And he recently said he would welcome any of the original cast back in cameos: 'It would be fun to figure out how to do that. Those are my comedy heroes.'

This was one of my favorite movies when I was a kid, I even had the toy proton packs.

Ernie and Annie were treated well by the years. They don't look as :flabbynsick: as the rest. Too bad Harold couldn't make it. :mjcry: RIP

LOL Man 30 years ain't a small amount of time to go by. shyt if you 30 now in 30 years you'd be 60.

Hell if you 15 now in 30 years you'd be 45.

I know they are probably like DAMN we did that 30 years ago. Where the fukk did the time go.
