Keanu Reeves is a name that echoes through Hollywood as a beloved and talented actor. Known for his roles as Neo in ‘The Matrix’ and the deadly assassin John Wick, he has also ventured into the realm of video games as Johnny Silverhand in ‘Cyberpunk 2077’.

Beyond these iconic parts, his fans have been eager to see him take on a Marvel character in the MCU. Recently, on ‘Jimmy Kimmel Live!’, Keanu expressed a desire to play the role of Johnny Blaze, also known as Ghost Rider.

While Keanu has never played a superhero directly, he lent his voice to Duke Caboom in ‘Toy Story 4’, a character that shares a similar profession to Johnny Blaze. Both are stuntmen, and funnily enough, Disney owns both the Marvel and Pixar studios. This connection might not be strong, but it’s interesting to consider.

On social media, especially in a recent Instagram post by 21xfour highlighted by ScreenRant, fans have shown massive support for Keanu to take on the role of Ghost Rider. Comments like ‘Need’, ‘Please’, and ‘Dope’ flooded the post, showcasing the strong desire among the community to see this casting come to life.

While there’s no confirmed Ghost Rider movie yet, rumors have been floating around that Jensen Ackles might be in the running for the role. Whether these rumors hold water or not, the character of Ghost Rider is likely to make a return to the screen, and fans hope the chosen actor will deliver a memorable performance.

Meanwhile, the MCU continues to expand, with ‘Captain America: Brave New World’ set to hit cinemas on February 14, 2024. The anticipation for this movie is high, as it adds yet another chapter to the ever-growing Marvel universe.

Keanu stepping into the shoes of Ghost Rider would not only fulfill a long-standing wish of his but also bring a fresh dynamic to the character. Whether this dream will turn into reality remains to be seen, but the idea itself is exciting enough to keep the discussions going.

As we look forward to more Marvel adventures, let’s keep our fingers crossed that Keanu might ride as the Ghost Rider in the not-so-distant future.
