Dream MCU Role of Keanu Reeves is Ghost Rider
Though he starred in his own non-MCU standalone franchise with Nicolas Cage in the key role, Ghost Rider has yet to make his MCU debut. Although another Robbie Reyes' Ghost Rider debuted in Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., the original Johnny Blaze version hasn't been seen and Marvel Studios' canonicity of that particular Marvel show remains unverified, so the mantle could be up for grabs. Along with several other Hollywood icons such Ryan Gosling and Norman Reedus, Reeves has been rather open about his desire to play Blaze and he is clearly ideal for the part.
Johnny Blaze is a tormented loner with a somewhat distant attitude in Marvel Comics, unlike Cage's bombastically explosive characterization in Ghost Rider. Reeves, meantime, has a strong history of playing this precise kind of character; two outstanding performances are Neo and John Wick. Fans love Reeves for the part, but the recent frenzy about his probable involvement shamelessly ignores the fact that he is already set to play in a Comic Book Movie that he is also ideal for.
Reeves Is Already Coming Back to Play His Best Comic Book Movie Role
Two years before Cage would first show as Ghost Rider, Keanu Reeves appeared in the live-action DC Constantine adaption. Originally released, Constantine was an underappreciated film; yet, thanks in great part to Reeves's outstanding performance in the title role, Constantine has developed a cult following in the subsequent years. Constantine 2 has been confirmed to be in the early phases of development with Reeves resuming the titular part and Francis Lawrence in the director's chair thanks to its later ascent in popularity.
Constantine 2 is currently scheduled to be a DC Elseworlds property inside the framework of the DCU rebirth. For Comic Book Movie buffs, this is sufficient to get them thrilled without obsessing over the dubious idea that Reeves might star in an as-yet-unverified Ghost Rider project. Constantine 2 is apparently further advanced than any Ghost Rider project and deserves significantly more excitement even though its exact release date is yet unknown. Although Reeves's eagerness to play Blaze should never stop, his participation in Constantine 2 demands just as much attention as any hypothetical Ghost Rider revival plans.
Dream MCU Casting for Keanu Reeves: We Already Have Something Better
Though Keanu Reeves has been dreaming of a specific MCU role, the casting ignores something much greater. After rising to the ranks of Hollywood aristocracy, Reeves is among several cherished performers who has not yet appeared in the MCU. Although Hollywood stars like Christian Bale and Cate Blanchette have had key but one-time parts in the franchise, the abundance of fan-casts that highlight Reeves as a recurrent MCU main hero shows the need for him.
Now that Marvel has reclaimed the rights for X-Men, one of the more well-liked fancasts for Reeves is Wolverine, a prospect that has become more realistic. Given the X-Men are destined to be central players in the MCU's future—probably in the framework of an MCU reboot—casting the appropriate actor for the part becomes even more important. For this reason, even with his appeal, Wolverine might not be the ideal fit for Reeves. Indeed, even Reeves' dream part might not be as perfect as the actor's approaching comic book future.
Why is Constantine's Better MCU Alternative Keanu Reeves?
When it comes time to cast their version of Ghost Rider—more especially, Johnny Blaze—the Marvel Cinematic Universe offers many amazing choices. Most famously with Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings, which saw Simu Liu star as the titular martial arts hero, the MCU has already made significant progress in bringing lesser-known characters to the big screen. With the Multiverse, even legendary actors like Patrick Stewart and his Professor X might be brought back by the varied cast of the MCU, which has seen luminaries like Benedict Cumberbatch perform the role of Doctor Strange.
Although the MCU is not immune to fan-casting, the present lineup of the brand excites many people for a variety of reasons. The MCU began altering the field of comic book movies more than 15 years ago. There's plenty of time to see Keanu Reeves make his MCU debut given how long it took for the franchise to begin bringing in some of the more identifiable Marvel Comics characters; nevertheless, Constantine 2 would be a better choice.
The MCU: An Examining Future
Beginning with Paramount's Iron Man starring Robert Downey Jr., the multimedia superhero series known as The Marvel Cinematic Universe started in 2008. The property became rather well-known fast, and Disney finally acquired Marvel Entertainment in 2009. Among the scores of films and TV shows in the MCU are WandaVision, Loki, and Avengers: Endgame.
With its linked narratives, thrilling action scenes, and unforgettable characters, the MCU has grown to be a worldwide sensation enthralling viewers. The series now spans comics, video games, and theme parks among other mediums. The MCU is sure to keep ruling the entertainment business for years to come with its dedication to creativity and capacity to change with the changing scene of entertainment.
