Hold on to your skulls folks, because they are about to be set ablaze. If the rumors are to be believed, Marvel Studios is considering Ryan Gosling to take on the role of Ghost Rider in an upcoming movie. Yes, you read that correctly, Barbie's rejection took such a toll on Ken that his head turned into a flaming skull.
The only way to confirm this news is if anyone sees Ryan Gosling riding around town in a rugged leather jacket. Gosling's being considered for the role seems like an omen, as his wife, Eva Mendes, played Johnny Blaze's love interest Roxanne Johnson in the original film. What would make it 10 times better is if she reprised the role.
Fans have shown mixed reactions to the news, some are picturing Ryan Gosling's beautiful head turning into a scary-looking skull, while others think Ryan's pretty face is best suited for drama and rom-coms. Maybe they haven't watched Drive. Many fans believe the role was played perfectly by Nicholas Cage and shouldn't be tampered with.
