Nicolas Cage comments on returning as Ghost Rider
In the interview, Cage was asked if he talked toKevin Feigein relation to the character. The actor revealed, “That hasn’t happened, but what’s interesting is nobody asked me about going back to Ghost Rider. That was a question that came up, and they weren’t asking about Ghost Rider, they were asking ‘What do you think of the Marvel movies?’ And I gave my opinion about it.”
The interviewer then asked Nicolas Cage if he would love to play the character again to which he agreed thatGhost Rideris an amazing character. Also further added, “I mean, he’s a complicated character. It’s kind of like, how do you tell the story of Faust within the context of that universe? Because it’s a very philosophical character. I think it makes him special from other superheroes.”
Nicolas Cage as Ghost Rider
Ghost Rider is the story of a stuntman, Johnny Blaze. He is a famous motorcycle stunt rider. He is tricked by the demon Mephistopheles into signing a deal. And becomes the nextGhost Riderand is assigned by the Demon to defeat his son, Blackheart. Nicolas Cage played the role and added a spark to the character.

Later, in the sequel, he takes on the devil himself. He is hired by a secret sect of the church to save a ten-year-old boy from Roarke.
MCU has brought a different version of the character inAgents of S.H.I.E.L.D. But MCU seems to be separating Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. from the MCU canon. And based on the separation, the Spirit of Vengeance might still need an actor, and MCU can go for Nicolas Cage to play the role again.
