Ernie Hudson, who played Winston Zeddemore, was spotted on set Saturday in the Tribeca area of New York City, with leading ladies of the film Leslie Jones, Melissa McCarthy, Kristen Wiig and Kate McKinnon.

"Today was one of the most fun days of my career," the 69-year-old actor shared on Twitter. "Great respect for Paul and this amazing cast of ladies."

Feig also took to Twitter Saturday, thanking Hudson for his time on set and announcing the official wrap on filming.

"Thanks to the great @Ernie_Hudson for joining us on our last day of production. He is a class act and an incredibly talented and funny man," the director tweeted.

Other original cast members appearing in the reboot with Hudson include Dan Aykroyd (Dr. Raymond Stantz) and Bill Murray (Dr. Peter Venkman). Could you even imagine a Ghostbusters without these two?

In July Aykroyd tweeted -- and later deleted -- the news that he was on the set "shooting my scene with funny beautiful Kristen Wiig." He also mentioned that the new cast is "adorable, hilarious and badass."
