‘Fever Heart’ Sounds Rather Strange Yet Oddly Intriguing
Alexander Skarsgard (Melancholia, “True Blood”) and Cara Delevingne (Suicide Squad) have joined the cast of the road trip gothic thriller Fever Heart, according to THR. The film will begin shooting in 2017.
The road movie follows an amnesiac (Skarsgard) who teams up with a quick-witted circus sharp shooter (Delevingne) to uncover his lost memories. With a charming and malevolent tracker named Blood Lieberman in violent pursuit, the pair needs to learn to trust each other if they are going to survive this strange land stained with mysticism.
For some reason, that synopsis is really appealing to me. It sounds original and quirky, which piques my interest.
Fever Heart is directed by Ben Briand and co-written by Briand and Kevin W. Koehler. It is is being produced by Picture Films’ Margot Hand and Matt Dooley with Michele Bennett and Nadine de Barros acting as executive producers.
De Barros states, “I’m a huge fan of Ben’s work. I’m overjoyed at the opportunity to work with him. Ben and Kevin’s script had me on the edge of my seat, and Alexander and Cara are the perfect match for this material.”
Fortitude International is handling international rights and will introduce the project to buyers at AFM, per the site.
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.
