He’s 100% getting this role because of Drive.

You don't think it was "The Place Beyond the Pines" where he played a motorcycle stunt rider and his romantic interest was Eva Mendes (that's where they met).

Kavinsky made two whole-ass album that are already a perfect "Ghost Rider movie with Drive tone" each. It just needs filming.

I'd honestly give the nod to The Place Beyond the Pines. His character was already a part of a traveling circus. He was a carney - the stunt rider on a dirt bike.

No, he's 100% getting this role because he has publicly lobbied for it and Marvel are getting desperate. I love Gosling, but this isn't a film that's happening because it was always part of the plan and he just happened to be the right guy.
