This gives fans hope for a rated-RGhost Rider film. Following an R-rating would allow the character to delve into the much deeper and darker elements of his story without any restrictions.

But more importantly, the character thrives on violence and punishing his victims for the sins they have committed, and watching him authentically deliver the punishment without anything holding him down would be a treat to the viewers.
Why Is a rated-RGhost RiderFilm a Great Idea?
R-rated superheroes are the new trend and these projects have a strong record of success at the box office. Although being an R-rating film does not make the film an instant hit, it is just that certain superheroes thrive better when nothing is holding them back, and they can freely exercise violence and curses.
After Deadpool, the rated-R character that would come to our mind would be Ghost Rider which fans have been dying to see in the MCU film. WhileNicolas Cage’sGhost Riderfilms were a success they failed to showcase the danger and fear of the character because it was not dark and scary at all.
Both films showcased Cage’s outing as Ghost Rider and fighting various criminals and villains, but the horrifying element in the film was missing. The reason behind this is that the character is a dangerous and intense character and his very nature is to be violent.
Wielding a flaming chain, a burning bike, and unleashing psychological torture of the highest kind on people, powers that can not showcased in a PG-13 film. The film screams for an R-rating and if Marvel witnesses a massive success in their first project, then the 2nd film should be none other than theGhost Rider.
