WATCH: Kobe Bryant appears in new ‘Ghostbusters’

If there’s something spooky in your neighborhood, who are you gonna call? Apparently, Kobe Bryant.

The recently retired Laker superstar quietly made the move from the basketball court to the big screen, revealing a sneak peak of his cameo appearance in the upcoming rebooted “Ghostbusters” movie.

A 30-second video from The Player’s Tribune, where Bryant is an investor, showed the 20-year NBA veteran clad in the film’s trademark one-piece jumpsuit.

His uniform, of course, is emblazoned with his self-appointed nickname, Mamba.

Meanwhile, Director Paul Feig’s female-led reboot will star Melissa McCarthy, Kristen Wiig, Kate McKinnon, Leslie Jones and ‘Thor” himself, Chris Hemsworth.

Aside from Bryant, most of the members of the film’s original cast are reportedly making appearances as well, led by Dan Aykroyd, who starred and co-wrote the original 1984 film.

“Apart from brilliant, genuine performances from the cast both female and male, it has more laughs and more scares than the first 2 films plus Bill Murray is in it!”, Aykroyd, who watched an advanced test screening of the reboot, wrote on his Facebook page. “As one of millions of man-fans and Ray Stantz, I’m paying to see that and bringing all my friends!”

Notable “Ghostbusters” alumnus Rick Moranis reportedly passed up appearance in the new flick, while Harold Ramis died in 2014.

“Ghostbusters” will begin haunting cinemas  on July 15. Khristian Ibarrola
