The Best Logline Of The Year Goes To ‘Ex Machina’; To Be Directed By ’28 Days Later’s’ Alex Garland!
I like this plot a lot: “A billionaire programmer who handpicks a young employee to spend a week at his remote estate and participate in a test involving his latest invention: an artificially intelligent female robot.”
The idea of a Tony Stark-esque man who builds a realistic fem-bot that’s left in the watch a young male? Sound like it could tread into some dark and disturbing territory.
And guess what? It’s penned by 28 Days Later writer Alex Garland!
Garland is also making his directorial debut on the indie robot thriller Ex Machina, which hales from DNA Films, the company behind Dredd, Never Let Me Go and Garland’s breakout 28 Days Later, says Hollywood Reporter,
They are eyeing a summer or fall shoot for the film and a budget of about $15 million.
Ryan Gosling (Project Hail Mary) has made no secret of the fact that he’d love to play Ghost Rider in a Marvel Cinematic Universe movie, and it’s now officially happening.
Announced by Marvel out of San Diego Comic-Con tonight, Ryan Gosling will play the iconic Marvel character in a Ghost Rider movie being directed by Shawn Levy!
Expect Ryan Gosling to play Ghost Rider on the big screen in 2028.
Johnny Blaze is of course the most iconic and well-known Ghost Rider, selling his soul to Satan and becoming a supernatural badass. Nicolas Cage brought Blaze to life on screen in both 2007’s Ghost Rider and 2011’s Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance, while Gabriel Luna more recently played the Robbie Reyes version of Ghost Rider in the series “Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.”
Luna was set to star in his own Ghost Rider spinoff series in the wake of that small screen appearance, but that Hulu project ended up being squashed before it ever had a chance.
Fans have been waiting for Ghost Rider to join the Marvel Cinematic Universe for many years now, with Ryan Gosling making it clear that he’d love to bring the character back to life.
That Hollywood dream is coming true. Stay tuned for more as we learn it.
