Brittany Murphy, Stephen Moyer Spooked by ‘The Caller’
Yup, we’re still on top of our game. First (and only) announced here on Bloody Disgusting was The Caller, a new film from the company behind Wolf Creek. While we brought you the director (Mathew Parkhill), writer (Sergio Casci) and synopsis (read below), the Hollywood Reporter has learned that Brittany Murphy (Across the Hall, Deadline, The Dead Girl), Stephen Moyer (“True Blood”, Priest) and Luis Guzma have all joined the J-horror flick that begins shooting in Puerto Rico on Friday.
“Penned by Sergio Casci, when troubled divorcee, Mary Kee, begins to receive mysterious phone calls from an unknown caller she quickly begins to feel haunted in her own home. When she discovers that the person is calling from the past, Mary realises that she will have to kill her in order to survive but how do you kill someone living in the past and what will happen if she fails. From the director of the internationally acclaimed dot the i, Caller is a chilling supernatural thriller in the tradition of The Grudge and The Ring.”
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.
