Bad. Ass.

If Keanu Reeves becomes ghost rider that be so badass honestly (aside from his obvious good looks it probably will be a good film cause he’s a action guy!!! )

Just Throwin’ It Out

Just throwing this out there, Keanu Reeves should be Ghost Rider in the MCU.

Inevitable

A little context here, President at Marvel Studios said publicly that they talk to Keanu Reeves about EVERY Marvel movie to see if he’s interested. Ghost Rider is a name that has been set to appear in the coming slate of movies, it seems inevitable at this point.
