Here’s Zac Efron as Ted Bundy In ‘Extremely Wicked’
I’ve always been extremely uncomfortable with media and entertainment sensationalizing murder. Think about it, Ted Bundy murdered 30 people and we’re sitting here excited to see Zac Efron pretending to be him in a movie? That’s some surreal and strange stuff right there. No matter where your ethical base is, Efron is already filming the drama Extremely Wicked, Shockingly Evil, and Vile, and shared a photo of himself in character from set.
The movie is currently shooting in Covington, Kentucky, with Joe Berlinger (Paradise Lost 3: Purgatory) is in the director’s seat.
“Vile is telling the story of the infamous serial killer, focusing on how a man’s routine traffic stop spirals out of control when he’s brought up on criminal charges, a process that reveals his vast crimes.”
Jim Parsons will portray Larry Simpson, the lead prosecutor of the 1979 Miami trial that finally convicted Bundy.
John Malkovich, Lily Collins, Jeffrey Donovan, and Heathers’ Grace Victoria Cox also star.
Producing are Michael Costigan, Michael Simkin, Ara Keshishian and Nicolas Chartier.
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.
