Regisseurs en Nicolas Cage over Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance
Regisseurs-duo Mark Neveldine en Brian Taylor hebben in enkele interviews meer prijs gegeven over Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance, die volgende maand in de (3D) bioscoop verschijnt.
Tegenover Comic Book Resources zegt het duo Nevaldine/Taylor e.e.a. over de relatie die de tweede Ghost Rider heeft met de originele film uit 2007: "...it doesn't really relate at all! It's not really a sequel. It's more like a reboot. It stands on its own, except that it still has Nic (Cage), so it's kind of like a prequel."
Titelrolspeler Nicolas Cage heeft er een stuk meer over te zeggen tegenover SuperHeroHype: "...I don't see it as a sequel at all. The other movie was "Ghost Rider." This is "Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance." I see it as a different movie."
"I feel that Mark (Steven Johnson) and I got up to something really interesting with the first movie and I'm very happy with the first movie, as I know he is and even Brian (Taylor) likes the first movie, but it really ends there. It's a completely different experience."
"For me, John Blaze, his head is already ignited so when you meet him, he's in a much different place in this movie than in the other movie. It's almost a completely different character in many ways, a much edgier, almost cynical interpretation than the original "Ghost Rider" movie. In that movie, John was trying to keep everything at bay, so he was trying to almost pacify himself with these kind of absurd habits that he was forming to keep things from erupting. In this one, he's already been living in isolation in Romania. When you meet him, he's a much different kind of persona."
"I don't want to compare too much between the two movies, but I will say that this movie is going to have some genuinely scary and wild moments that are going to make you wonder what you just saw. Moments that are for lack of a better word: "freaky," where you're going to be like, "Did I just see that happen?" Hopefully it will mess with your mind, which is what I'm excited about with this movie."
Ghost Rider 2 is vanaf 16 februari 2012 in de (3D) bioscoop te zien. Hieronder kun je kijken naar een korte docu, met beelden van achter de schermen:
