Ryan Gosling has spent years openly campaigning to play Ghost Rider, but a past interview suggests the casting may have been further along than he was allowed to admit (at the time). Now that Marvel has officially handed him the flaming skull, one viral interview he made while promoting Project Hail Mary is going viral for the carefully awkward way he answered.
It's only been a few days since we learned Ryan Gosling will lead a standalone Ghost Rider movie directed by Shawn Levy and scheduled for 2028. The studio hasn't revealed much about Gosling’s upcoming Marvel movie, but the few details we have are promising. The Notebook actor will play Johnny Blaze, while Deadpool & Wolverine filmmaker Shawn Levy is set to direct. The pair recently worked together on the upcoming Star Wars movie Starfighter, and Kevin Feige told CinemaBlend the Canadian actor approached Marvel with both a pitch and a vision for the character.
