Chris Hemsworth to play receptionist in female-centric "Ghostbusters"
Who you gonna call? Chris Hemsworth apparently.
Hemsworth has a new role -- and it's not as the hunky action star we're used to seeing him play. The 31-year-old Australian actor is joining the new all-female "Ghostbusters" -- as the receptionist.
Director Paul Feig announced the casting scoop on Wednesday:

Hemsworth, known for his roles in "Thor" and "The Avengers," joins a cast that already includes Melissa McCarthy, Kristen Wiig, Kate McKinnon and Leslie Jones.
Production on the "Ghostbusters" reboot will get underway this summer, with an expected July 22, 2016 release date.
