Back in July, Marvel announced that they were working on a new Ghost Rider film with Ryan Gosling releasing in theaters in 2028. It’ll be directed by Shawn Levy with a script by Jonathan Tropper, known for Star Wars: Starfighter. Now, it sounds like another very popular actor, known for Heated Rivalry, may be joining the cast as well.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, Connor Storrie, known for his role as Ilya Rozanov in the popular TV series Heated Rivalry, is currently in talks to star alongside Ryan Gosling in Marvel’s new Ghost Rider film. It’s currently presumed, but not confirmed, that Gosling is playing Johnny Blaze. In the comics, Blaze is a stunt motorcycle driver who makes a deal with the devil and becomes bonded with a demon named Zatharos, causing Blaze to transform into a flaming, skull-headed, fiery motorcycle-riding spirit of vengeance. The feature film currently has a release date of July 28th, 2028.

It’s not clear what character, or potential villain, Storrie would be playing, as there isn’t one clear antagonist in the comics. Instead, the comics have a number of demonic antagonists, such as Mephisto. Sony has already made films based on the comics, and in those, they decided to bring in Mephisto and his son Blackheart, while in the Disney+ series, Iron Hart, Sacha Baron Cohen portrayed Mephisto.

The project is currently slated to film in New York in 2027, and it’s been reported that the project will shoot on film instead of digital. Marvel boss Kevin Feige is producing with Louis D’Esposito, Stephen Broussard, Shawn Levy, and Ryan Gosling, while Richie Palmer and Jessie Henderson are executive producing.
