Promoting his latest 3D thriller
Drive Angry, actor Nicolas Cage speaks shortly with
FearNet on his return as the Brimstone Biker in the duo Mark Neveldine & Brian Taylor-directed
Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance. Reiterating he'll portray the dual roles of Blaze & his demonic alter-ego, the actor says:
"There's an exorcism scene I just did where Johnny Blaze is being exorcized," says Cage, "And then I also play Ghost Rider, who's the spirit of Zarathos, who's a corrupted angel. So it's like completely different entities. The movie is not like anything I've done before."
The story - "It has been several years since making a deal with the Devil and Johnny Blaze, living in self-imposed isolation, finds himself as the only person who can help save 10-year-old Danny – and ultimately the world – thanks to his unwanted and uncontrollable power – his ability to transform into the hell-on-wheels monster known as The Ghost Rider"
Starring alongside Cage, Idris Elba, Ciarán Hinds, Christopher Lambert and Violante Placido, officially wrapping up filming last Saturday,
Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance opens in theaters in 3D on February 17, 2012!
