Ryan Gosling’s Ghost Rider to Appear in “Avengers: Secret Wars” — Insider

Ghost Rider might debut in the Marvel Cinematic Universe a year before his own movie hits theaters.

Ryan Gosling will reportedly appear as Ghost Rider in Avengers: Secret Wars. Insider Jeff Sneider shared the news, having previously stated that the actor will play Johnny Blaze, the most famous bearer of the mantle.

Marvel plans to introduce the hero before his standalone project premieres. Avengers: Secret Wars arrives in theaters on December 17, 2027, and the Ghost Rider film is slated for 2028.

Specific details about the role remain unavailable. Marvel has not announced the cast or started filming Secret Wars, meaning the character could appear in a substantial storyline or make a brief cameo in a post-credits scene to set up his solo movie.
