Work Begins on ‘[REC] 4 Apocalypse’
I’m a little surprised that Filmax’s [REC] 3: Genesis isn’t premiering at the forthcoming TIFF, but it’s quite possible that the film just won’t be done in time. Still, while the Paco Plaza-directed sequel is in post production, Jaume Balagueró is already in pre-production on [REC] 4 Apocalypse, the final installment in the zombie/possession franchise that took cinema verite to an entirely new level.
Via Twitter Balagueró explained, “Launched the screenplay of REC Apocalypse. Blood will run, I fear.” Further adding, “First track REC 4: lots of red, of course, but also blue. # forgiveness?”
The only details are that this new film will bring the [REC] saga to its end.
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.
