Director Mark Steven Johnson on a possible sequel... In the interview, given during promotion of the upcoming DVD release of Ghost Rider, Johnson discuss many things including another Ghost Rider film, his involvement in it, what villains he would like to see in the sequel and what else he would like to be directing if he doesn't end up doing a sequel. "We're talking about it, yeah, talking about it," says Johnson of Ghost Rider 2. "I don't know what I'm going to do, to be honest. After Daredevil and this ... it takes so long, these movies. I really want something different, and the pressure of the fan community is always so great." - Cinematical, 6/7/07 [link]
Director Mark Steven Johnson on a possible sequel... The filmmaker also has a notion as to which characters from the Marvel comic book might show up in the sequel as the villains of the piece. Johnson says that, like Superman, Ghost Rider doesn't have a bunch of recognizable adversaries, but he does have some cool ones. "If there's a second one, I would push for Scarecrow," he says. "In fact, in my first script it was Scarecrow who was the villain, but then I heard that they were going to put him in the Batman movie. But now having seen it, he wasn't really in it that much. And the Marvel Scarecrow is really pretty cool, so I think he'd be an excellent villain. I also think there's a character named Blackout that could be interesting, [and] there's Vengeance from the later comics." - IGN, 6/7/07 [link]
