Much has been made about the fact that this summer's Ghostbusters game from developer Terminal Reality and publisher Atari will feature the vast majority of the original movie's cast returning to voice their roles. One that didn't make it was Sigourney Weaver who played the role of Bill Murray's love interest Dana Barrett in both Ghostbusters films.

Now the Associated Press reports that the main female character in the game is an all original cast member named Dr. Ilyssa Selwyn. She's described as "the brainy guest curator of a 'World of Gozer' exhibit at the Natural History Museum." The actress who plays her role is anything but a nerd, however. It's major 1980s dream girl Alyssa Milano. The AP quotes Milano as saying, "Obviously, fans of the movie are going to miss Sigourney Weaver. I have so much respect for that character in the movie that I hope I do the position that she is in justice. I was just flattered to be asked to be part of 'Ghostbusters'." Hey, we are glad you were asked, too.
