Hey, has anyone heard anything about a possible Ghost Rider movie? I think I remember hearing about one going into production.

yes here something I lifted for ya........

Release Date: Fall 2004
Cast: Nicholas Cage as Ghost Rider
Director: Mark Steven Johnson
Official Site: TBA
Trailers: None
Status: Starts Production later this year!
Distributor:



Synopsis: A motorcycle stuntman makes a deal with the devil in order to save his mentor from cancer. His end of the bargain is a little more than he expected, however, and he is possessed by a demon. Every night, he transforms into the Ghost Rider, a humanoid form with a flaming skull for a head, and goes out to wreak vengeance on the guilty.

Hey, thanks for the heads up on it lurker.

I don't know if that would be too good, though. I mean how are they gonna do the flames around his head? I mean CG might be okay, if it doesn't look too corny.

Alright lets go Ghost Rider. I think hes a really cool character and look at my avatar.

I hope Nick Cage does a good job in it. He's not that bad of an actor.

nic cage as ghost rider? come on....

That's what it says. Don't really know Ghost Rider comics so...can't comment on that. But you never know, it might end up looking good.
I couldn' see Hugh Jackman as Wolverine and know I can't see anyone else doing it. He's perfect

superhero hype has more dish on the ghost rider movie than this movie site, so go here:

Ghost Rider Hype!

you know what,I felt the same way about wolvie now that you mention it,so maybe I'll like nick too. he has played some pretty freaky parts in his day!

Hmm...Nick Cage is doing 2 more movies until he moves on to NightRider, so we might not see this movie until 2006/7.

I think that might be a good thing

Ghost Rider writer/director Mark Steven Johnson has left another cool update on the Superhero Hype! message boards: "Sorry it's been so long since I've checked in, but we start shooting in about four weeks so you can imagine how busy things are! Jesus. Four weeks out. Hard to believe, eh? Especially for those of you, like myself, who have waited for this movie for such a long time. These updates are always hard to write as I have to toe the line between wanting to tell you everything while having to keep the details under wraps. So, first off. Casting. Mr. Nicholas Cage will be Johnny Blaze. Take it from me. That's a done deal. And I could not be happier. Nic is in the shape of his life. Lean and mean, like a motorcycle stunt rider should. I've cast a few more parts but I should wait until the official announcements come (very soon).
The Budget. Nice to see that we've been "upgraded" from a $40 million dollar movie to a $51 million dollar movie! Maybe that's enough for a Dazzler movie but not for a Ghost Rider movie! Seriously, this is an event movie. And Sony knows how to make them right. Rest assured. That is not the budget. Not by a long shot.
Johnny vs. Danny. The great thing about making a Ghost Rider movie is that I get to take the best from both the Johnny Blaze and the Danny Ketch versions of the comic. So even though I am telling the Johnny Blaze origin story, there are elements of the Danny Ketch stories that I love and will include in the movie (so don't worry, Flamehead! Your beloved Danny Ketch will be there in spirit!). Caretaker will be there. And Blackheart. But so will Mephisto and Roxanne and the Quentin Carnival.
The script. People have mentioned the old David Goyer draft. Goyer wrote two really interesting versions of a Ghost Rider movie. I'd go to see either one of them. But my version is my own. The script is much closer to the comic. But at the same time, it's much more of a Western. A Supernatural Western is, I think, about the coolest idea ever. The Ghost Rider needs that open road as well as the city. I feel that is what makes him unique -- that he's a rider. Think Mad Max. Unforgiven. We have huge battles in the city but, ultimately, they will end up out in the desert.

The Hellcycle. Well, it's simply unbelievable. It's sculpt is finished and it went into the molds last week. It's the Chopper from Hell. No doubt about it. This is the coolest thing I have ever seen in my life. The toys and the video game are already in the works and they are going to kick ass! (end qoute)

Now I was a GR reader in my younger years and the only thing that concerns me about Cage is his age. He must be around 40 maybe older by now and well, Johny Blaze was just a younging, around 25 if memory serves. Now I luv Cage, Leaving Las Vaggas, Raising Arizona, MatchStick Men, the one when he swithced faces with the bad guy (played by Travolta) and even Con Air. All entertaing films, mostly due to the fact that Cage can just sink himself into a charachter. I hope this will be a top notch film and Story, lets hope its more like Spider Man or X-men and not so much like Cat Women or Batman #2-4...
