![]() Showcasing Johnny Blaze within the "gothic" environment of the Doctor Strange sequel could be a natural springboard into his own feature film.Ī Phase 4 film could be a logical choice to introduce Johnny Blaze, but remember that Multiverse of Madness also has Scarlet Witch in a starring role. Among what is known about Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness is that the sequel will dip into the "gothic and the horror and the horrific." Nightmare is believed to be the film's main villain, and the character is depicted as a common foe to Stephen Strange and, you guessed it, Ghost Rider. Adapting Johnny Blaze into the MCU would be a significant move, and the timing could be just right with what is on the horizon.Īfter his significant role in Avengers: Infinity War, Doctor Strange's sequel film, now slotted for a March 2022 release, could be the perfect setting for Johnny Blaze to make his debut on the silver screen. However, Daniel Richtman's report does note that this version will not be that of Robbie Reyes, so it is not a far-fetched assumption that Kevin Feige and the team are looking to adapt the original Johnny Blaze iteration of Ghost Rider. After all, the version that appeared in Agents of Shield does take place in the MCU. This would not indicate Ghost Rider making his "first" appearance in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. It is currently uncertain if the Ghost Rider project is a feature film or live-action series. The project will be set in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and the titular character will not be the version portrayed by Gabriel Luna. NEWSĪccording to our contributing insider Daniel Richtman, a Ghost Rider project is being developed by Kevin Feige and Marvel Studios. Now in an exclusive report, his future lies within the larger MCU, as it will be welcoming Ghost Rider to the fold sooner rather than later. With the Marvel Television version of Robbie Reyes sidelined, the future of Ghost Rider lies in the hands of Kevin Feige and Marvel Studios. As Thanos said, "Destiny arrives all the same." Among those welcomed back was Ghost Rider, whose film rights reverted back to Marvel in 2013 after Johnny Blaze was portrayed by Nicholas Cage in Ghost Rider and its sequel Spirit of Vengeance , released by Sony and Columbia Pictures.Īfter the rights reverted back to Marvel, Ghost Rider got a pleasant reboot in the form of Robbie Reyes, portrayed by Gabriel Luna in season three of Agents of Shield. Luna's performance was well regarded to the point that his own series was to be in development through Hulu, only for the spin-off to be shelved entirely. Now, slowly and slowly these characters are returning home to Marvel. Marvel's early financial struggles are well-chronicled, resulting in the selling of film rights for various characters to different film studios. 20, at its new time, 10 p.m., on ABC.The Marvel Cinematic Universe has come a long way in its 12-year journey, and it continues to evolve as it welcomes classic heroes back into the fold. What do you think of SHIELD‘s choice in Robbie Reyes as Ghost Rider? Let us know in the comments section below.Īgents of SHIELD returns for season four on Tuesday, Sept. SHIELD viewers have already met Calvin Zabo/Hyde in Daisy’s father (Kyle MacLachlan), so maybe he’ll return for Robbie’s origin story. Robbie was actually killed because in his car trunk, there was a briefcase of pills that Calvin wanted in order to turn into his alter-ego Mister Hyde. In the comics, Robbie has ties to Calvin Zabo aka Mister Hyde. There is also a pre-existing connection to Robbie that has already been established on SHIELD. The bond between Gabe and Robbie is a strong one, and the opportunity to show that family connection will lead to many juicy, emotional scenes, making for great TV. SHIELD can even cast a developmentally disabled actor to portray Gabe. It also gives the show another way to show inclusion and representation with Robbie’s brother. First, it allows the series, which already champions diversity and equality with its butt-kicking leads Chloe Bennet, Ming-Na Wen and Henry Simmons, to add even more diversity to the mix with the Mexican-American character. Why did Agents of SHIELD pick Robbie over Johnny? There are many obvious reasons. 'Agents of SHIELD' Season 4: What Is a Life Model Decoy?
