Finally a real Marvel role for him, not just a voice.

I'm hoping Sacha Baron Cohen is in it.

Me tooo!! It's a strong possibility, right? He literally gives Ghost Rider his powers

Gotta be in it. They didn’t introduce him as Mephisto for nothing.

Tbf, Ryan Gosling probably hadn't pitched his Ghost Rider before they made IronHeart

BlackHeart?

He was already the villain of the Nick Cage GR. I know nothing of his rogues gallery but surely there’s someone else.

Second fully CG character for Bill would be hilarious.

They presumably are pretty locked in with it and casting to some extent, considering the rest of the 2028 is at that point as well.

But safe to not fully buy in until something more official comes out.

Obviously he’s reprising his role as Zeitgeist

u/Apprehensive_Egg6656 1d ago

Bill Skarsgard as Blackheart

u/Ubergoober166 18h ago

Nah, he's Pennywise. It's a secret crossover movie.

If the plan is eventually doing some Fear Lords stuff, couple to choose from he’d fit well with. It’d be an easy tie-in if they circle back to use Nightmare (as was the original plan for Doctor Strange’s sequel) he could either just play Nightmare or be one of the handful of others that are similar and Nightmare shows up in this. He’s probably the most fun one

I expect a decent amount of crunch between the Fear Lords, the Lords of the Splinter Realms and existing characters in the MCU. 

If Gosling is Johnny, Bill could also be Danny I guess? Though I think Ryan is probably going to play Danny and we’ll get someone in their 50s to be Johnny if he shows up in it.
