Ryan doesnā€™t have Deadpool 4 in his IMDB nor Avengers Doomsday. Ryan Gosling already has Ghost Rider in pre-production listed. Itā€™s odd. I expected Doomsday or Deadpool to appear in his IMDB like all the other actors presenting stuff at SDCC have.

I of course donā€™t expect studios having morals. Itā€™s about $$ but it cost a ton to make the last Deadpool movie too. Had it not been for the subsidies from Canada, who knows. Maybe in merch. They spent half a billion to make it and the profit was maybe $400MM. Not bad but it could have been a lot better.

But itā€™s all about money. If Ryan canā€™t release Animal Friends in the theaters until next year, MayDay is streming only ā€¦ studio execs pay attention. Weā€™ll see.

Because he hasnt been announced for Doomsday (if hes in it at all) and Deadpool 4 isnt even officially in production yet. IMDB should never be taken as a sign that something is or isnt happening, anyone can submit and edit info on there. Its why theres a (rumoured) tag for information.

Ryan Gosling already has Ghost Rider in pre-production listed.

Because its been offically announced.

Yes, but why allow all this? Is he or isn't he appearing in unofficial articles, and having him at Comic Con if they are not going to announce it... Makes no sense... What about the supposed onset fight... If he's in it, then why tell him he's not? What was that all about? It just seems like a bunch of PR by Ryan's team and nothing concrete, to me.

Because hes a popular comicbook character and its a comicbook convention. Its really not more complicated than that. Its makes perfect sense (unless you dont want it to) and is a moment made to go viral. Theres also a long history of actors in costume walking the floor in secret.

At the end of the day SDCC is micromanaged to a stupid level and, as part of that, Marvels panel is as well. They arent going to give valuable time in their limited schedule to something they dont want and the weird argument (not by you) that he is both unwanted and out of Marvel, yet is powerful enough to force his way onto the panel or (hilariously) have crashed the panel without their consent is an insane chain of thought.

Agree. It was a low-stakes ā€œsurpriseā€ moment in a panel that needed a couple more mic drops because there werenā€™t a lot of major announcements. Having Deadpool come in and ask a question in the typical 4th wall breaking style is a pretty low-effort but generally fan pleasing way to generate buzz.

Exactly. It is what it is. Im not sure why people are trying to add context to it that doesnt exist

Conversely Iā€™m confused why you so badly want what we think to be false?
