Los Angeles: The new trailer of forthcoming film "Ghostbusters" has addressed social issues like race and gender.

"Ghostbusters" seems to take on the race and gender issues amid controversies that arose regarding the all-female cast and actress Leslie Jones's "street-smart" role which some fans called a racist stereotype, reports aceshowbiz.com.

"I don't know if it was a race thing or a lady thing, but I'm mad as hell," said Jones who essays the role of Patty Tolan in the movie.

The trailer also gives a sneak peek at actor Chris Hemsworth. The actor is seen applying for the job of the ladies' receptionist and pitching logos for their business.

Directed by Paul Feig, the new Ghostbusters is slated to hit theatres in the US on July 15.
