Two More Heading Into ‘Detention’
Shanley Caswell (“Bones”) and Spencer Locke (Resident Evil: Extinction, “The Vampire Diaries”) have been cast in the horror comedy Detention opposite Josh Hutcherson and Dane Cook. Directed by music video helmer Joseph Kahn (Torque), the indie film revolves around teenagers who have more on their minds than finals during their senior year of high school: A serial killer seems to be on the loose. Caswell will play a cute but awkward girl trying to connect with her school crush (Hutcherson), and Locke will play her nemesis, the head cheerleader. Kahn wrote the script with Mark Palermo. Shooting on the $10 million pic begins this month in Los Angeles.
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.
