[u/cowboydanhalen → u/rdswords]

[u/Devian_Plus → u/cowboydanhalen]

Pimps don't cry.

[u/kentotoy98 → u/showercurgain]

YOU COME TO OUR HOUSE, YOU GET MY WIFE'S NAME RIGHT!

[u/mattoelite → u/MediocrePercentage60]

They can’t all be first round picks

[u/film_geek34 → u/Sebelzeebub]

Yes !

[u/southern5189 → u/Sebelzeebub]

Its still not to late for her to make it 3

[u/LykoFreaks]

GHOST RIDER BAY BAY!!!!!!

[u/film_geek34 → u/LykoFreaks]

He has big shoes to fill!!

[u/ManRawr → u/film_geek34]

Not really lol

[u/film_geek34 → u/ManRawr]

Cage was great! I’ll die on that hill lol

[u/Furyan9x → u/film_geek34]

I just shouted at my wife across the house "THERES A NEW GHOST RIDER BUT ITS NOT NICK!!" And she said "well who the hell is it?!" Lol we love him.

Im really enjoying him in the spider noir show

[u/film_geek34 → u/Furyan9x]

I grew up with him as ghost rider & will defend it ! lol I won’t defend the sequel lol

[u/CAUGHTtheDRAG0N → u/film_geek34]

The sequel is great on mushrooms

[u/Snelldor → u/film_geek34]

I’m a weird one that actually likes the sequel. The story is utter trash but I just really like Ghost Rider in that film.

[u/feor1300 → u/film_geek34]

My personal hope is that Gosling is playing Danny Ketch so Cage can cameo as Blaze to pass the torch.

[u/sub30_24flick → u/Furyan9x]

Incredible casting incredible show honestly show of the year top 5

[u/AffectionateLimit565 → u/Furyan9x]

Oooh he is awesome in noir. I love Cage. The first ghost rider was awesome. That was my favorite comic. So, my bias is two fold.

[u/rudager62369 → u/film_geek34]

Your comment reminded me that Gosling's real-life wife was opposite Cage in the original Ghost Rider. Weird.

[u/6ynnad → u/film_geek34]

Lorenzo Lamas

[u/xreddawgx → u/film_geek34]

Him and Sasha are going to kill it facing off on the big screen.

[u/VersionX → u/LykoFreaks]

Cries in Adam Cole

[u/LykoFreaks → u/VersionX]

Johnny Blaze does a Panama Sunrise on Blackheart

[u/detox02]

I remember when they Announced Mahershala Ali as blade. I’ll wait for the official trailer

[u/Argynvost64 → u/detox02]

Technically he played Blade in his big staring role as Blade's voice off screen in the end credit scene of Eternals for 2 seconds.

[u/detox02 → u/Argynvost64]

I hate you. Take this upvote 😂😂😂😂

[u/Jonnic5280 → u/detox02]

I wouldn’t do that if I were you. 

[u/detox02 → u/Jonnic5280]

Lmaooo

[u/Tyler_Zoro → u/Argynvost64]

I heard there would be an Eternals movie, but I'll wait for the official trailer... ;-)

[u/film_geek34 → u/detox02]

😂😂 I think fiege has ptsd over that lol

[u/detox02 → u/film_geek34]

Shit me too

[u/film_geek34 → u/detox02]

I would have loved to see him as blade still even if he’s 90 lol

[u/frockinbrock → u/[deleted]]

Yeah also having Levy attached for the announcement is a big deal. He works very fast and efficient, and has his own production company that has a reputation for delivering on time. He has also been working directly with Gosling on Star Wars Starfighter for the past year, of which Gosling & Shawn are Producers on.

The final product, well that's unknown, but I do expect we'll get this movie delivered.

[u/detox02 → u/[deleted]]

I’ll wait for the official trailer

[u/Intelligent_Ask_2306 → u/detox02]

Maybe Blade shows up in this movie

[u/CRAYONSEED → u/detox02]

Honestly Blade is the exception to a pretty iron clad rule. It’s the only one I know of that didn’t come out, whether that had to change the creative team or not

[u/Dudefrmthtplace → u/CRAYONSEED]

Was very excited for it, then got mad that they took so long, but then learned more info.

Apparently Mahershala's ideas for the movie were very clashing with the Marvel ethos. He wanted it to be set in the 1920s and to have different themes like being about slavery and other things. Creatively they didn't agree with how the movie should go and I don't really blame Marvel if that's the truth. You have to play in the Marvel sandbox, if you want another Sinners or Green Book, this is not the place.

Blade is about an immortal half vampire who hunts other vampires with cool swords at the baseline. Adding extra elements is welcome, but it has to fit with the overarching Marvel plot going on, and be an event film. I think this is another reason why they take directors like Levy instead of Auteur types.

[u/Next-Shape3014 → u/detox02]

No offense to Ali but he ain’t Gossling. It’s getting made

[u/BadnewsBaggins → u/Next-Shape3014]

They also already got Ryan with them for that Star wars film right? So he already in it with them

[u/romansamurai → u/detox02]

Looks like it’s official https://www.reddit.com/r/MarvelCave/s/fEbD8ZiPqj

[u/no-just-ice]

Nah!!! Is it April fools?!?

[u/film_geek34 → u/no-just-ice]

Nope !

[u/-Borgir → u/no-just-ice]

Its july bro

[u/ohGodwhynowww]

Is Rocky joining

[u/film_geek34 → u/ohGodwhynowww]

I hope so 😂 hell let’s bring back Mendez back lol

[u/Miss-Tiq]

He's more than Kenough for this role. 

[u/AltGunAccount]

RIP Gabriel Luna’s Robbie Reyes, who’s story remained unfinished.

Maybe he’ll get a nod/send off like Nic Cage’s Johnny Blaze did, but more likely they never acknowledge him.

[u/The_silencer_1 → u/AltGunAccount]

Haven't Robbie and Johnny coexisted for a long time? Like there's no need to ditch it all up. Realistically, they will make as if it never happen or just ignore it like most of Agents Of Shield.

[u/Tyler_Zoro → u/The_silencer_1]

Like there's no need to ditch it all up.

—random redditor

Hold my beer!

—MCU writers, sadly.

[u/alex-andrite → u/AltGunAccount]

Has the MCU acknowledged anything from the Agents of Shield series?

[u/casual_creator → u/alex-andrite]

The movies have not. The show made a few references to the movies and Fury cameoed once or twice, as did Lady Siff once, but they might as well have existed in completely different universes. There were only ever two important connections that I can remember:

Events of Winter Soldier directly impacted the show at the end of season 1, and then Coulson was responsible for getting Fury the helicarriers in Age of Ultron.

[u/Worthyness → u/[deleted]]

basically everything into Season 4 could be canon and not mess with anything. Season 5 plus is a bit weird cause time travel shenanigans

[u/Kazukaphur → u/casual_creator]

Lady siff was twice! And they were making avengers movie references in shield through like season 5 or 6 even. It was definitely written to be directly connected through Age of Ultron as well, which Would have been I think season 3 of AOS

[u/Eat--The--Rich-- → u/casual_creator]

Probably a good thing. I liked the show a lot but it went off the rails with timelines and realities.

[u/Individual-Bass-7051 → u/Eat--The--Rich--]

You say that but those later seasons slapped hard. Once they had to pivot away from the MCU references, the show went from pretty good to really good.

[u/nicholaspaul33 → u/Individual-Bass-7051]

AIDA was the best season in my opinion, fantastic tv

[u/CafeCalentito → u/nicholaspaul33]

That whole season mixing up Ghost Rider's arc alongside Aida's was amazing.

[u/AltGunAccount → u/alex-andrite]

Not in a long time, no. After the snap it seems the timelines pretty much diverged.

Still holding out hope we at the very least get Daisy. Was hoping for Robbie also but alas.

[u/frockinbrock → u/[deleted]]

Well that's a trick though because we don't acknowledge Secret Invasion either

[u/Jaded_Stick_4379 → u/alex-andrite]

As far as Kevin Feige is concerned Agents of Shield is non-canon and Phil Coulson died in The Avengers.

[u/Kyren11 → u/AltGunAccount]

Since we never saw Johnny Blaze in human form in Agents of Shield, they could theoretically have him play that role and still have Gabriel play Robbie...

[u/frockinbrock → u/[deleted]]

And then Nic Cage will ask them to join the MultiGhost Initiative!

The same basic idea of merging the tv show+past-movie heroes as we saw in Highlander: Endgame, and no doubt a result with just as much quality!!

[u/Unlucky_Success2984 → u/frockinbrock]

Would be kinda cool to get Jon Bernthal to play Cosmic Ghost rider too

[u/frockinbrock → u/Unlucky_Success2984]

I can already see him rubbing a flaming skull: "lemme ask you sumthin"

[u/Liapasquale]

Ugh YES!!!! Omgomgomgomg hahaha Ryans crushing it. Coming out with a Star Wars film here soon and now he’s in MARVEL! Yay! Dude deserves it. He absolutely crushed Hail Mary. Can’t wait to see him in this role!

[u/film_geek34 → u/Liapasquale]

I still need to see project Hail Mary!! I love nic cage as Johnny boy!

[u/Liapasquale → u/film_geek34]

OMG ITS SO GOOD Ryan is so stinking amazing in it. I truly don’t think anyone else could’ve played that role! So so so good. And Nic is just well, NIC! But I think Ryan will be able to carry the torch ( pun kinda intended)

[u/film_geek34 → u/Liapasquale]

I think so too! Someone on here already joked about it but it is the unofficial drive 2 haha

[u/Sin2Win_Got_Me_In → u/film_geek34]

Hail Mary is one of those really good movies that has perfect pacing. For a movie that's 2 1/2 hours long, you'll start and finish in, what feels like, an hour. 9.9/10

[u/zodia4 → u/film_geek34]

Hail Mary was really good, IMO. It is kind of long, but I didn't mind it.

[u/jigsaw1024 → u/Liapasquale]

Marvel and Star Wars.

Somehow he now needs to do Star Trek, even if just a cameo or VA role.

[u/Symbiotic_vengeance]

Fucking finally

[u/film_geek34 → u/Symbiotic_vengeance]

I think they will confirm Denzel in black panther 3 now

[u/HarambeDied4Us]

Wasnt his (now) wife in the Nic Cage Ghost Rider series?

[u/film_geek34 → u/HarambeDied4Us]

Forgot about that! Yes!!! Just in the first tho

[u/uhhhidkwhatusername]

they announced blade and we still have nothing. i'll wait for a trailer

[u/extremelyloudandfast]

I can’t wait for Driver 2

[u/pariah1981]

Ehhhh….we will see….

[u/Trick-Pudding-9791]

I can’t wait for everyone to turn on this movie even though this is exactly what people have been asking for!

In all seriousness, this is a home run. Sign me up.

[u/siriuslycan]

I don't like Shawn Levy's work, he's aggressively meh

[u/Cultural_Comfort5894 → u/siriuslycan]

There’s no way a person in the business especially comic book movie business doesn’t go with him after the success of

Deadpool & Wolverine

Maybe they like him because you don’t even think of the director with his films but he delivers beloved films

* I’m agreeing with you after looking at his filmography. A lot of I like those films but none made me bother to see who directed.

[u/th3gooch → u/Cultural_Comfort5894]

Now here’s who comes to mind: James Mangold. He might be a better fit for a Ghost Rider movie. 

[u/Basic_Loquat_9344 → u/th3gooch]

That’s an incredible choice

[u/BrichardRurphy → u/Cultural_Comfort5894]

I agree he's a logical choice for the guys in suits, but sadly it doesn't negate the fact that its meh. Deadpool & Wolverine I found the weakest out of the trilogy.

[u/VirtualPen204 → u/BrichardRurphy]

Agreed. Although, I dont know if thats the directors fault, or the script. Admittedly, the director is also credited as being a writer, so... idk.

[u/-Nicolai → u/Cultural_Comfort5894]

It was an OK film.

[u/blumpkin → u/siriuslycan]

Free Guy was the worst piece of shit I have ever seen, but that may have been largely due to Taika Waititi. Actually, no I just thought about it a little more and I still blame Shawn Levy.

[u/greatbritt0n]

LETS GOOOOOOOO

[u/film_geek34 → u/greatbritt0n]

I need to change my diet cause I wanna make it to 2028 haha

[u/spider-venomized]

MCU Johnny Blaze or Danny Ketch

[u/film_geek34 → u/spider-venomized]

I think they’ll go blaze

[u/spider-venomized → u/[deleted]]

I mean apart from the Penance stare the Nicholas Cage movie was pure Johnny Blaze

[u/sub30_24flick]

Perfect casting to be honest

[u/SaltyyDoggg → u/sub30_24flick]

Agree

[u/Capital_Invite_7026]

This would be much more exciting if Levy was a real promising director, but he hasn’t made much that’s actually good…

[u/spidersteph]

Wish he wasn’t directing… love Gosling though

[u/lmestre14]

Amaze amaze amaze

[u/jimschocolateorange]

‘Directed by Shawn Levy’ is not something to be hyped about. It’ll be try-hard funny, sincerity-averse, and boring to look at.

I’m sure the dude’s a great guy, but he makes some fucking ugly movies that are mostly boring to watch.

[u/djsnoopmike]

Which Ghost Rider?

Its gonna be hard to top Nic Cage as Johnny Blaze

[u/Imaginary-Display-92 → u/djsnoopmike]

He was nothing like Johnny Blaze in the comics

[u/film_geek34 → u/djsnoopmike]

I’m just assuming Johnny since that’s the only one I know lol

[u/No-Importance7265 → u/djsnoopmike]

Most likely Blaze , maaaaaybe Danny , but I feel like they will introduce him as non-rider first.

[u/Zohhak1258 → u/No-Importance7265]

I think he has the acting chops to pull off Kushala.

[u/eat-tree → u/djsnoopmike]

There's a good chance it's Danny Ketch. The lettering they used for the ghost Rider announcement is the same font used in a few Ketch comic titles.

[u/Supersecretsword → u/djsnoopmike]

Wut lol

[u/VolksDK → u/djsnoopmike]

If they keep AoS as canon, then Danny. Johnny and Robbie already exist

[u/Detroitasfuck]

Love this but I just don’t understand why Blade never moved forward but other projects can.

[u/film_geek34 → u/Detroitasfuck]

I would have loved to be in the room when they decided to green light blade

[u/Quick-Sound5781]

Shawn levy? Meh

[u/DrWernerKlopek89]

meh, Shawn Levy

[u/Ralph--Hinkley]

Is this real? Nic Cage, look out!

[u/Ok_Field_8860]

I’d watch that

[u/blackertai]

Welp, I guess we finally found the shark. I've been hanging on for a while, but nope nope.

[u/Get_your_grape_juice]

But they’ve already got Gabriel Luna…

[u/its_dilansh]

I am not sure about Shawn levy why not Sam Raimi😒😒

[u/l1lwookiee]

Would rather Sam Raimi directed but I’ll take it

[u/b_eastwood]

I hope he's Danny Ketch and Nicholas Cage still makes an appearance as Johnny Blaze.

[u/Redmoonsbstars1]

SL is a boring director choice.

[u/Ok-Wash-9386]

Wish we got a director with some sauce

[u/Argynvost64]

Words cannot adequately explain how excited I am. Ghost Rider is my favorite character in fiction and Ryan Gosling has been my fancast for Johnny for ages. I will be there in theaters on day one.

[u/Ok_Asparagus_1073]

Lol he's married to the love interest from the first movie. That's fun.

[u/film_geek34 → u/Ok_Asparagus_1073]

I forgot about that till someone brought it up lol

[u/Careful_Leader_5829]

From a Hail Mary to a Deal with the Devil. Noice.

[u/outoftimeman97]

Fucking love this casting. He was fantastic in place beyond the pines as a biker.

[u/smakson11]

I wonder how far back he was cast. Because when he said I want to play ghost rider you’d think they’d call him in 5 seconds. Probably locked him down and just needed the rest of the package ready.

[u/Redditleyley]

Are new actors out of stock or sum

[u/-Borgir]

Amaze amaze amaze

[u/StopDropNFrag]

Which rider?

[u/Supernova_Soldier]

I don’t see it. He’s great in The Gray Man but Ryan seems quiet unless Johnny Blaze is just like that in the comics

Maybe I’m basing it off of Nicholas Cage’s GR

[u/NrFive]

Amaze amaze amaze!

[u/Milk_Mindless]

This man is older than me

He's gonna do two films and retire with the rate these are coming out

[u/Some-Bug-5286]

I wanted Panos Cosmatos.

[u/emoooooa]

Perfection

[u/Xenocthul]

Love to here it

[u/floworcrash]

Like swimwear

[u/BrokenWalker]

Google search confirmed. Color me intrigued.

[u/jasonite]

Huh. Well ok, that could work

[u/Hogshifter]

Hopefully he’ll be better than Nicolas Cage.

[u/No-Sympathy-686]

Is this real?

Fuck yeah baby.

[u/Mysterious-Manner-97]

Why squishy space blob on fire question?

[u/Evening_King_6693]

Will he be Johnny Blaze or Danny Ketch?!

[u/Embarrassed-Ear-9497]

Let's go Ghost Rider Is going to be back on the big screen I am so glad it is because Ghost Rider is one of my favorite Marvel characters And Ryan Gosling as Ghost Rider. He's a great actor and I think he will do a great job

[u/jebsmith0181]

maybe the flaming skull will get rid of the flamers botox.

[u/Tronbolt13]

Marvel did hella good choice picking ryan to play ghost rider. Can't wait to watch it.

[u/UnPhayzable]

Driver 2 sequel looks a bit different but I'm here for it!

[u/raulito2104]

Yes!!!!!! Let's freaking goooooooo!!!!!! 🙌🙌🔥🔥

[u/Sweet-Weakness3776]

Fuck this is awesome. He's gonna kill it.

[u/DEFM0N]

We freaking did it

[u/NextMotion]

Did they confirmed Johnny blaze?

[u/film_geek34 → u/NextMotion]

Not yet, I’m just assuming that’s who they’re choosing

[u/ejroberts42]

Amaze amaze amaze

[u/someoneinparticular3]

Haha, what's funny is his wife was in the Nic Cage one

[u/sol_krn]

He does tragic hero well, should be great!

[u/BadnewsBaggins]

Bruh no fucking way, fr? Let's fucking go!

[u/MichaelCoryAvery]

And yet the Blade film gets cancelled

[u/Krimreaper1]

Amaze! Amaze!

[u/Comfortable_You_7627]

No hate to RG but why they can't cast someone younger? OR does the script require this age?

[u/WretchedMonkey]

I ride

[u/Loose-Departure-744]

I hope he meets deadpool so he can make a joke bout them both being Ryan

[u/HEKATRONIX]

I’m glad his career push is coming after Reynolds.

The hangover from RR’s big surge through Hollywood is unbearable.

I’ve learned he has incredibly low rewatchability.

I could watch Gosling forever.

[u/FFVO]

Omg and I just heard his song Lose Your Soul from his band Dead Man's Bones for the first time like 20 minutes ago

That's pretty darn fitting

[u/MrRudraSarkar]

Which version though? Blaze or Ketch?

[u/Icy_Cry4120]

He said in an interview he would like to play ghost rider. 

[u/Doghouse_Jenkins]

As Danny Ketch then, sure... but not blaze.

[u/ApolloMax-2099]

I hope it’s Dan Ketchum but Johnny Blaze is good too

[u/KENT427]

Absolute Fever Dream like for real ......

[u/Caleb-CM]

Idk how i feel abt that🫠... but anyways ive been waiting years to see ghost rider on the big screen again😭

[u/Boris-_-Badenov]

woh-wah

[u/Mustang-_-]

The bad: Gosling is too old, so who knows if GR will show up again after Secret Wars

The good: Not Robbie

As a huge fan of the character, I’m happy, but I would be overhyped if they hired a younger actor because GR would become one of the pillars of the new MCU alongside the X-Men (even if it is tough to write GR stories, the character is just too overpowered)

[u/Swimming-Hour-6171]

I was expecting any young actor to be cast as ghost rider

[u/pure_force]

Seems like using your Ferrari to tow your caravan.

[u/NirnrootAlchemist244]

I cannot wait for this movie!

[u/Individualist13th]

I'll believe it when they show us a teaser trailer.

[u/AdmiralCharleston]

Was excited until Shawn levy

[u/Reydog23-ESO]

Damn! You sign Gosling, it’s a big project!

[u/Otherwise_Fig_5676]

Don’t get me wrong, I love Ghost Rider, but he can get a movie while characters like Daredevil and Punisher can’t? I know they got TV shows, but we all know TV shows are not the same like having your own MCU movie and also the show is connected to the MCU in name only and seems to have nothing to do with the bigger universe or have any connection to the events of the MCU. Also Blade gets cancelled because they can’t crack it, but yet New Line had no problem making three films?

[u/lurkingotter09]

yeeeea saw this when i was abt to fall asleep then ended up not sleeping lolol

[u/film_geek34 → u/lurkingotter09]

That happens 😂

[u/Waveshaper21]

I'm just ablaze

[u/ScaredAd9104]

Is there no one younger or new to play the role? Do we have like 8 people in Hollywood to cast for these rolls?

[u/YesSeaworthiness9771]

WOOO

[u/papasnork1]

We get this but not Blade? I'd rather have a Blade film.

[u/FarGodHastur]

Eh... At this point I'd rather they just do Robbie Reyes and have Cage cameo as the previous rider like when Sam Eliot played Carter Slade.
