Ozzy Osbourne is reportedly set to appear in the upcoming Ghostbusters reboot, according to rumors.
Rumors started after director Paul Feig shot a concert scene at Boston's the Citi Wang Theatre with mock-up posters featuring Osbourne.
The Boston Herald also reports that crew members outside the venue mentioned Osbourne. Posters around the Citi Wang Theatre, which was renamed Stonebrook Theatre for the shoot, apparently advertised "Rock Revenge Fest Featuring Ozzy Osbourne" and promised a "12-hour marathon of metal."
Billboard also reports that a casting call was made in late July for "metalhead-looking extras" to "play the audience at a heavy metal concert." Feig has yet to mention Osbourne specifically.
Ghostbusters will star Melissa McCarthy, Kristen Wiig, Kate McKinnon and Leslie Jones and is set to open on August 15, 2016.
