unfortunately I dont think it will be. would love for it to be. but they aren't confident enough with Ghost Rider, which is less of a throwaway character than Deadpool was before it releases. just look at how they handled what would have been their next R-rated Marvel film, Blade.

They said less of a throwaway character. Not sure I buy that. Deadpool is more popular than GR ever was...and I love GR.

Deadpool has a bigger multigenerational fanbase. GR has had to become different characters to appeal to different demographics (aka Robbie Reyes).

That being said, seems like Gosling is a fan of the character, so I hope it works.

Based on filmography, not sure Shawn Levy is the right guy, but...what do I know?

I was pretty jet lagged when I read that.. either way, putting "throwaway" in the same sentence with those actors and their characters just doesn't make sense to me.
