'Ghost Rider' Sequel Finally Making Progress

Columbia Pictures has begun to rev the throttle on a second installment of the Marvel Comics character Ghost Rider. David Goyer (Batman Begins, The Dark Knight) is in early talks to create the story and supervise writers for a film expected to once again star Nicolas Cage (as we first reported here), who played the highly flammable cyclist in the 2007 original. Through a spokesperson, Goyer said he hadn’t signed on yet. But plans are already under way to base the sequel on a “Ghost Rider” script written years ago by Goyer, whose superhero work includes hit screen transfers of DC’s “Batman Begins” and Marvel’s “Blade” franchise. The original “Ghost Rider” was scripted by director Mark Steven Johnson. The activity on “Ghost Rider” follows a flurry of activity on Marvel characters at almost every studio but Disney, which acquired Marvel Entertainment in a $4 billion deal.

I just saw Ghost Rider for the first time about 3 nights ago. It's worse than everybody says it is. It's actually laughable. The acting is terrible. The special effects are the worst I've seen in a big budget movie. It looks like something off the SyFy channel. Side note -- Eva Mendes is a terrible actress.

Yes please put Dicolas Cage in this instead of something I actually want to see.

Bleh. I hated the original GR, during the big last battle I found myself staring at the screen and thinking about things I needed to do the next day at work. The first one was a horrid piece of shit and using nic cage in it was just putting shit sprinkles on a giant shit sundae with whipped shit creme and a shit shaped cherry on top.

I love the comics, but the movie was as insulting as the film version of "Spawn" was.

Didn't like the first one much. Partly because of how they decided to merge the Blaze and Ketch storylines, but mostly because of Nicolas Cage. He just does not pull off the character at all. Don't see this one being any better with him still in the role.

first movie was atrocious. Cage is so bad for the character, but the first movie only say the light of day case cage pushed it so much. now a second with cage AND goyer penning it.. its a double slap in the face for bad/generic/uninspiring movie. will be taking an even wider birth around it with Goyer involved.

i cant wait for this i loved the first one i guess its because i like nick cage as an actor and though the story was well written the movie well acted and the action was just amazing so when this is out ill be there to support it

Ghost Rider and the 1st Punisher (with Dolt Lundgren) are two of the worst scripted movies ever. Following close is Mortal Kombat.

Why is this even wasting space as news? It's a Marvel movie, not horror. Not to mention Nicholas Cage sucks.

I hope it's more of a dark and twisted film this time
