Grab Your Controllers Because ‘Hardcore Henry’ is Becoming a Video Game!
The upcoming POV action film Hardcore Henry is a film we’ve been championing for a while (read our review) and we absolutely cannot wait for it to hit theaters on April 8th so all of you can see what we’re talking about.
Hailed as “the world’s first POV action movie”, Hardcore Henry looks like it’s basically a fast-paced action FPS video game, one that would get loads of awards from all the gaming communities and websites. After all, a super powered human that can take loads of damage going around and fucking everything up left and right all to save his lady? It’s basically “Double Dragon” meets “Advanced Warfare” and it’s exactly the kinda game I’d want to play.
According to director Ilya Naishuller, that desire is going to become a reality. Answering a question on Twitter, Naishuller confirmed that the movie was going to be turned into a video game of some sorts, although there’s literally no other information, such as what kind of game (one would assume FPS), what platform it’ll be one, a release date, etc… Considering his answer regarding the usage of VR, I’m kinda hoping that the game has VR capabilities as that seems just 100% appropriate and perfect.
Now, if you’ll excuse me, I’m going to watch the FPS scene from Doom over and over until Hardcore Henry comes out.
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.
