Nic Cage Says Ghost Rider is Headed to Europe For Sequel!

Posted by SexiVixxEN 91 days ago
Ghost Rider’s passport just arrived in the mail. The Pope’s assistants have laid out the welcome mat. The only thing left to do is get the $60 t-shirts screen-printed for the “Flaming European World Tour” and it’s sequel time. Man of the hour, Nic Cage, is talking up Ghost Rider 2 during his press rounds for this weekend’s proto-ridiculous Bangkok Dangerous. Move away from any flammable materials and laughing gas before reading this quote…

“Yes, actually, had a nice meeting with the studio about 3-months ago,” Cage told Coming Soon, “and we talked about going international with that character. Taking him into Europe, having him go on a motorcycle tour through Europe, and he’s connected with the church, if you can believe that. So it sort of has elements to it that are very much in the zeitgeist, with The Da Vinci Code and things like that.”

Over at Dark Horizons, Cage added that the plot will have Johnny Blaze “working with different religious figures.” Did these interviewers bring a smirk-o-meter? I’m not an aficionado on this character or the canon, but Nic Cage subbing for Tom Hanks in The Da Vinci Code with a flaming skull sounds like a great pitch for a new show on Adult Swim. Let’s hope Marvel and Sony flick on the greenlight.

Oh, and Cage also added that he’s a great fit for Matthew Vaughn and Mark Millar’s $70 million Kick-Ass because as a kid he used to dress up as a superhero and go fight imaginary crime past his bedtime. Slashfilm offers a toast.

Discuss: This has a chance to be one of the greatest sequels of all time, no? By all means readers, what should the subtitle be? Who should play The Pope?

    jrfoldes, you are actually incorrect. Ghost Rider has ventured out of the states multiple times. That's rudimentary knowledge, dude..

    This movie sucked ass. Everything about it sucked ass. The acting was bad. Ghost Rider looked horrible, he was all stiff looking. Memphisto was a dispicable character, as well as Blackheart. Marvel and Sony need not put this movie out. What needs to happen is that Marvel needs to get all of it's character's liscenses back and start making their own movies just like Hulk and Ironman. Sony, Fox (xmen, spiderman) need to get their shit together.

    I agree I think it would be pretty weird. I'm glad that they're finally talking about a sequel though I was starting to wonder WHEN they would start talking about a sequel but if and when they do a sequel they HAVE to bring Sam Elliot back he was AWESOME!!

    I'm not sure I like the idea of it being in Europe. I don't think the actual comic book character ever set foot outside the United-States, and trust me I'm a Ghost Rider fan and expert. So long as they use a villain from his rogue's gallery and not some made up character I'm content.

    Andy Dick should play the pope. not. And I love the ghost rider comic books, but, the movie was awful. Well, it was fun to watch, but still iffy.
