10 Actors Who Could Play Ghost Rider In The MCU
3. Karl Urban
Karl Urban was one of those actors that always seemed destined to make it into the MCU. He had appeared in many other geeky projects and proven himself to be a treasured figure in the comic-book world. Sadly when he finally made it to the universe, it was as Skurge in Thor: Ragnorok. Whilst this was still a great opportunity, it nevertheless wasted the wonderful actor.
If by some chance he was granted a second attempt at the world of Marvel, then the role of Ghost Rider could be an excellent choice for him. He is capable of playing complex characters and is incredibly funny - as seen in Star Trek and The Boys. Since the MCU loves to insert comedy into its movies, he would suit this quota perfectly.
Finally, it's hard to think of other actors who can so convincingly pull off the same level of threat and intimidation that Urban can achieve. Therefore his Ghost Rider would be a perfect balance between of amusing and threatening - heightening the cool factor the character is known for.
