Ryan Reynolds Tried to Get Nicolas Cage as Ghost Rider in Deadpool 3 – The John Campea Show

Ryan Reynolds confirmed in a recent interview with Collider that he had reached out to Nicolas Cage and asked him to reprise his role as Ghost Rider in "Deadpool & Wolverine." The record-breaking Marvel blockbuster features a handful of actors reprising their comic book characters of yore, from Jennifer Garner's Elektra to Chris Evans' Johnny Storm and Wesley Snipes' Blade. Reynolds wanted Cage to join the film's epic list of cameos.

When asked if Cage was pursued to reprise Ghost Rider, Reynolds replied, "Yes." The actor then added, "Definitely had a conversation. Yes, but no."

Cage played Johnny Blaze/Ghost Rider in two comic book films: “Ghost Rider” (2007) and “Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance” (2011). The films were released by Sony, while “Deadpool & Wolverine” featured cameos by actors who appeared in Marvel films developed and distributed by Fox, which is now owned by Disney.
