Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D.: First Look At Ghost Rider

 

Marvel Television and ABC have revealed the first official photo of Gabriel Luna as Robbie Reyes, aka Ghost Rider, in Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.

 

The photo shows Luna as Robbie wearing his signature Ghost Rider jacket. See it below.

 

“As always, we are going to put our own spin on the character,” executive producer Jed Whedon tells EW. “We are staying true to the comics in the places where we feel like it’s really important — we love the character’s family dynamic and the East L.A. kid in him.”

Marvel also today released the first in-universe glimpse at Ghost Rider in Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. Season 4 in the form of a found cell phone footage-style promotional video released via social media.

 

In the video, Ghost Rider’s car can be seen through flames and heard peeling away. Someone can be heard exclaiming, “Oh my God! Is that him? That’s him!” The video closes with the Agents of S.H.I.EL.D. logo and the fiery message, “Vengeance comes to Tuesday.” The frame also displays Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.’s new 10 p.m. time slot.

Sooo...why didn't they just go with Danny Ketch or Johnny Blaze? Would it be to expensive to animate the Hellfire bike?

 

is it possible they don't own exclusive rights to either of those GR's?

All "Ghost Rider" rights have reverted back to Marvel. I believe anything "Ghost Rider" related is included in that package, much like the "Fantastic Four" package rights include Silver Surfer and Galactus.

Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D. Season 4 Premiere Synopsis And New Look At Ghost Rider

'In light of the Sokovia Accords, and with Hydra obliterated, S.H.I.E.L.D. has been legitimatized again and no longer needs to operate in the shadows. Since the world presumes that Coulson is dead, the organization needed a new Director to be the face of the organization. Coulson finds himself back in the role as an agent and teamed with Mack, and together they are tasked with tracking down and confirming the presence of Enhanced people, aka Inhumans. Agent May is tasked with training specialist strike teams, and Fitz and Simmons have taken a big step forward in their relationship.'

 

“We can’t say much about what we’re going to do with [Robbie Reyes’] origin, but we are doing our own spin on it,” Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. Executive Producer Jed Whedon said during a recent interview. “We don’t want people who have read the comics to know exactly what’s coming.”

Did anyone read the 15 or so comics this character is in?

I'd guess that they mean his powers won't be mystical in nature - which would be a shame as it would be a good way to connect to the Dr. Strange movie.

 

That's what I took from that too. Too bad.

 

Again, maybe they are saving the mystical stuff for a future series. :wishluck:

I have read the first one...seems kinda interesting so far. Apparently he is possessed by some serial killer spirit instead of a true Spirt of Vengeance.

 

And he looks like this:
