I’m now fully convinced that Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance is going to be considerably better than its predecessor even if it ends up being a bad movie. The Crank guys having Ghost Rider fighting Satan in Transylvania with the help of an alcoholic warrior monk is guaranteed to entertain on some level. Add Idris Elba as that drunk monk, and the odds increase dramatically.
Also joining the cast is Johnny Whitworth (Gamer, 3:10 to Yuma) as a criminal working on behalf of the devil to find a mortal boy Satan wants to take possession of. According to THR’s Heat Vision Blog, Whitworth’s character eventually gets turned into a demonic creature.
Shooting begins next month.
