Ghost Rider Director Would Love To Tackle A Guardians Of The Galaxy Movie

In the early 2000s, it was looking like Mark Steven Johnson was set to become one of Hollywood’s go-to guys for helming blockbuster comic book adaptations, after the filmmaker delivered Ben Affleck’s Daredevil and Nicolas Cage’s Ghost Rider within the space of four years.

They were both reasonably big hits at the box office, although it would be fair to say that critics weren’t left particularly enthused. The latter did at least manage to get a sequel, albeit without Johnson behind the camera, but Ghost Rider marked the final time Johnson took the reins on a big budget studio project.

James Gunn Debunks Guardians Of The Galaxy Vol. 3 Casting Rumor

At any given time, the Marvel Cinematic Universe is constantly swamped in rumor and speculation, with new stories touting potential projects, casting additions and plot details appearing on an almost hourly basis, making it increasingly difficult so separate the theoretical wheat from the hypothetical chaff.

Luckily, James Gunn is a very active presence on social media, and the Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 writer and director has always been quick to shut down any unfounded scuttlebutt. He remained suspiciously silent when the ‘Will Poulter as Adam Warlock’ chatter began to spread before letting the cat out of the bag, but he’s back to pour cold water on another falsehood.

Ghost Rider Director Explains Why Nicolas Cage Was His Only Choice

If you needed to find an A-list star with a solid track record of box office success who was capable of headlining a blockbuster comic book adaptation revolving around a lesser-known character that morphs into a vengeful supernatural antihero with his skull on fire, then you couldn’t do much better than Nicolas Cage.

It also helped that the Academy Award winner had been a massive fan of Ghost Rider his entire life, with the makeup team forced to cover up Cage’s Johnny Blaze tattoo when he ended up playing the role in Mark Steven Johnson’s 2007 effort. It wasn’t the best superhero movie we’d ever seen, but it turned a profit and ended up getting a sequel, so it was hardly a failure.

Shazam! Fury Of The Gods Star Hypes Helen Mirren’s Villain Hespera

Dame Helen Mirren might be a legend of the stage and screen, with a career that dates back over half a century and has yielded a trophy cabinet packed to bursting point with an Academy Award, three Golden Globes, four BAFTAs, four Emmys, an Olivier Award, a Tony and much more, but she can also be a total badass when the occasion calls for it.

The actress was one of the highlights of Bruce Willis’ otherwise middling Red duology, clearly having the time of her life getting the opportunity to fire some high caliber weaponry, while her stint as the Fast & Furious franchise’s Queenie Shaw has seen her bring a mischievous spirit to the role, even if she didn’t get behind the wheel until this summer’s F9.

Oscar Isaac Reveals He Turned Down A Role That Won An Oscar

As one of the most in-demand talents in Hollywood, Oscar Isaac probably finds himself turning down a lot of offers that come his way. The overwhelming majority of actors and filmmakers would no doubt say publicly that regret isn’t a healthy part of the job, even if they end up saying no to something that ultimately yields massive success.

During an interview with ABC Audio, Isaac revealed that he passed on the lead role in Freddie Mercury biopic Bohemian Rhapsody, which went on to land Rami Malek an Academy Award for Best Actor. On top of that, it’s also the highest-grossing movie in the history of either the biopic and drama genres after hauling in $904 million at the box office, landing a further three Oscars for Best Sound Editing, Best Sound Mixing and Best Film Editing.

Scarlett Johansson Pitched 2 Other Characters When She First Met With Marvel

James Gunn recently highlighted the importance of giving your all in an audition, which could ultimately lead to more opportunities further down the line if you make enough of an impression. It’s an approach the Marvel Cinematic Universe has adopted, with several notable stars being cast in one of the franchise’s movies after originally reading for another part.

Most famously, Tom Hiddleston was gunning for the role of Thor before Kenneth Branagh realized he’d be the perfect Loki, while Chadwick Boseman’s first encounter with the studio saw him test for Guardians of the Galaxy‘s Drax. Scarlett Johansson may have spent over a decade as the MCU’s Black Widow, but she originally had another pair of characters in mind.

The wrestler-turned-actor has also stated that even the thought of a Drax series on Disney Plus makes him miserable, as well as letting it be known that he believes the Marvel Cinematic Universe dropped the ball on his character’s backstory by turning the muscle of the team into comic relief at the expense of his more tragic comic book history.

Dune Gets Off To A Strong Start At The Chinese Box Office

The prognosis continues to look good for Denis Villenueve’s Dune, despite the sci-fi epic releasing on HBO Max the same day it hit theaters. The literary adaptation will pass $150 million at the international box office by the end of the weekend, while it’s on course for a domestic debut in the $30-35 million range.

China has been more stringent than ever this year when it comes to giving the green light to major Hollywood productions, with Free Guy the last big budget American-backed blockbuster to meet the approval of the notoriously strict censorship board a the end of August, but Dune is nonetheless is tracking for a decent debut.

A Surprising Contender Is The New Favorite To Be Next James Bond

No Time to Die has only been playing in theaters for a few weeks, but the James Bond rumor mill has already started to intensify. That’s not really much of a surprise when the talk surrounding Daniel Craig’s potential replacement has been bubbling in the background for at least five years if not more, but a surprising new contender has emerged.

Typically, the candidates tend to rope in the same recurring names over and over again, with Henry Cavill trending almost immediately after producers Barbara Broccoli and Michael G. Wilson confirmed the hunt for a new 007 begins next year. Idris Elba has ruled himself out, while Bridgerton‘s Regé-Jean Page has remained at the forefront of the conversation, but he’s not the favorite anymore.
