Will Universal’s ‘Dream Home’ Ever Open?
Universal won’t open Jim Sheridan’s thriller Dream House, toplining Daniel Craig, Rachel Weisz and Naomi Watts, on February 18 after all. Variety reports that Morgan Creek Prods., which financed and produced the film, needs to shoot additional footage. Craig, however, isn’t available until the first two weeks of December, when there’s a break in filming on David Fincher’s The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo. That doesn’t leave enough time for Dream House to meet its Feb. 18 date. Morgan Creek and U are still eyeing a 2011 release, and a new date is being worked out. Penned by David Loucka, Dream House tells the story of a successful New York publisher (Craig) who moves his wife (Weisz) and children to a New England town, where they buy the home of their dreams. But the dream is shattered when they learn that the previous tenants were murdered. The husband teams with a neighbor (Watts) to learn the truth about the crime.
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.
