Just last month we told you that Nicolas Cage (Kick-Ass) had definitely signed on for the sequel to Ghost Rider, and that Crank & Crank 2 directors Mark Neveldine and Brian Taylor had signed on to direct Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance for Sony’s Columbia Pictures.

Now, via Romania’s Hot News Bogdan Monceau, the marketing manager for a Romanian production company Castel Film said that the film will begin production in Romania this fall and will be shot in 3D.

This confirms what Nicolas Cage told MTV back in July about filming in Romania,

“I’ll be filming it in Romania, which is exciting, since that’s where Dracula’s castle is,” he explained. Even if Ghost Rider doesn’t fight a vampire, he’ll still get to check out the scenery. “The Ghost Rider has to ride up to Dracula’s castle.”

Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance is slated to hit theaters on February 17th, 2012.
