Hannah-John Kamen will be taking on the role of The Ghost for the Ant-Man sequel in what will be the character's first turn at live action. Primarily an Iron Man villain, John Morley is a self-proclaimed saboteur and a guy who has quite the bone to pick with corporate America, having taken exception to the shady practices of Stark Industries and other enterprises over his lifetime. These days, the character is looked upon more as an antihero than a straight-up villain, but one with a terrifying demeanour nonetheless.
Morley's abilities make them a force to be reckoned with and, as the name suggests, their stealthier attributes in particular make them an especially threatening character. It'll be interesting to see just what exactly Kamen brings to the role, and indeed, what The Ghost is actually up to, but no doubt it'll have something to do with Marvel's corporate elements.
WhatCulture's very own resident movie guy, Ewan has been working in the content creation biz for over 10 years now, having started as a freelance contributor to WhatCulture Gaming all the way back in 2015. After graduating with a First-Class Honours in History from Northumbria University in 2017 (where he won a prize for a totally killer dissertation on the Watergate years), Ewan took on the role of Comics Editor at WhatCulture and quickly developed WhatCulture Comics into one of the biggest superhero-focused channels on YouTube. He followed this with a brief hiatus at Screen Rant in 2021, where he worked across the Gaming and Film sections as a writer and editor, before returning to WhatCulture as a Senior Content Producer / Presenter in 2023. He started his own podcast, We Love Dad Movies, in 2022, and has contributed several written pieces to the Eisner-nominated comics website Shelfdust as well.
In his current role, Ewan incorporates his love of cinema, comic books, and history into written pieces and video essays for WhatCulture's Film & TV channel, as well as WhatCulture Gaming and WhatCulture Horror, with a particular focus on nineties-era Dad Movies, old school Westerns, and Golden Age Hollywood Noir. John Carpenter is his fave, and he thinks Batman Beyond should never have been cancelled. If that's your vibe, you'll probably like his stuff.
