Nicolas Cage Gushes About Ghost Rider!
Posted by Adam
NICOLAS Cage loved filming Ghost Rider 2, insisting it was a “wild” experience.
The actor — who reprises his role as Johnny Blaze, a stunt motorcyclist who morphs into the demon vigilante Ghost Rider, in the comic book movie sequel — revealed that working with directors Mark Neveldine and Brian Taylor was a true adventure.
“They’re not like anybody else I’ve worked with. They do things with the camera that are just extraordinary,” he said.
“They’re brand new. The director’s on rollerblades and hanging from wires with the camera, holding on to the motorcycle and it’s going to be really wild.”
The star also promised that Ghost Rider: Spirit Of Vengeance would be quite different from the first film.
“It’s going to be very different,” he said. “A completely new experience and that’s how the directors choose to see it. I mean there’s even a new origin sequence.”
Cage recently revealed that he agreed to star in his current movie, Season of the Witch, because he wanted to film in a field.
“I really wanted to be in the forest,” he said. “I was making a little movie called Bad Lieutenant in New Orleans and I was very hot and I was in these tiny, very humid offices, and I was dreaming about making a movie in the forest.
“And then this script came along and there it was and I said ‘I’m going.’ And I was in the Austrian Alps, which was divine. I also found myself living a dream because I’d always wanted to play a knight. I’d been doing it since I was very small in my backyard and it took this long to put it on celluloid.”
