You'd think anyone watching Paul Feig’s Ghostbusters reboot would be in little doubt as to the sexual preferences of Kate McKinnon’s totally oddball, utterly irresistible enginner Jillian Holtzmann; first greeting Kristen Wiig’s Erin Gilbert with a look-up-and-down followed by the killer, “Come here often?”
Yet, unfortunately, it doesn't look as if Sony will be making Holtzmann a canon gay character anytime soon

When The Daily Beast's Jen Yamato broached the subject with Feig himself, he appeared to confirm it as so with a "grinning, silent nod"; but quickly followed up with, "I hate to be coy about it. But when you’re dealing with the studios and that kind of thing… "

Indeed, any interpretations of Holtzmann's character seemed fuelled by the fact the actress who plays her is also gay; with McKinnon being the first openly lesbian cast member to appear on Saturday Night Live.
