AGENTS OF S.H.I.E.L.D. Actor Gabriel Luna Says A GHOST RIDER Spinoff Has Been Discussed At Marvel

Gabriel Luna's Robbie Reyes has been a definite highlight of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. season 3, and from the sounds of things there is real potential for a Ghost Rider spinoff at some point down the line.

Fans were a bit skeptical when it was announced that we'd be getting a small-screen take on The Spirit of Vengeance for Marvel's flagship TV series, but as the fourth season of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. continues, most would have to admit that Robbie Reyes has been a very successful addition to the show. In fact, many viewers would now like to see some sort of solo outing for the character, perhaps even on Netflix.

During an interview with Comicbook.com, actor Gabriel Luna confirmed that there have been conversations about a potential spinoff, though he doesn't elaborate further.


“It’s been talked about, there’s definitely deals in place for that potential. But I just take it one day at a time. I have so much fun now I just want to make sure I get these episodes right. If they throw more episodes on my plate, I will do my best to do well with those stories as well.”

Is it possible that Ghost Rider's popularity may even have Marvel kicking around the idea of integrating him into the larger MCU? Luna won't confirm or deny, but he does reveal which specific team-ups he'd most like to see:

“I think it’d be cool to see Blade, and The Punisher, and Strange and that whole Midnight Sons kind of run. And you have the Dark Avengers – you’ve got all these teams that The Ghost Rider slides into… I love that idea, that potential.”

Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. will return with a new episode on November 29.

@MattBellissimo - I think people should remember - only the Netflix shows have a tiny chance of crossing over with the movies. If its just on TV as normal then we'll likely never see a Ghost Rider in the MCU movies, and honestly I'd want to see a mystical version of the Avengers.

@Scarilian - That is patently false.
1. with enough advanced notice any character can show up in the movies. This is as much an issue with production schedules than anything else.
2. There has been a significant cross over from AOS into the movies, which you wold not know if you are not following the show. It isn't characters in the show appearing on the movies but the actions of the show are evident in the movies. Coulson found Loki's scepter and refutbished the helicarrier in AOU.

@Scarilian - 3. The Characters in the Netflix shows are a little more known and the shows are more hero-centric as well which makes the main characters a little more movie worthy but the street level action that happens on Netflix is just not movie worthy IMHO. This makes the Netflix stuff actually less likely to be in the movies.
4. It is foolhardy to have a requirement that a character make it into the movies to be legit. These are different story telling mediums with different strengths and weaknesses. Netflix is better if you want nudity, blood and "dark" joyless subject matter. My preference is for something a little lighter that explains things from the movies and reinforces and explores the themes that are introduced in the movies.

IMHO Agents of Shield is much more a part of the MCU than any of the Netflix stuff and that is fine.

Full Disclosure - I only watched 3 or 4 Daredevils, lost interest in Jessica Jones and haven't watched Luke Cage. I was never into the "street level" stuff in the comics and tended more for the cosmic stuff.

Robbie Reyes >Blaze and Ketch, for me. GR NETFLIX show or Midnight Sons movie or show. Whatever works best for them, because they could maybe pull it off well on television, but at the same time it might just be easier to add a monster movie the MCU, it's a genres they haven't touched and it would be a huge connection from the ABC Marvel shows to the movies.

Set up the Horror/Supernatural sub-corner of the MCU with Midnight Sons on Netflix.

Give Blade a solo show (with Hannibal King as his partner and Morbius showing up now and again), and Ghost Rider one; then have them team up like The Defenders.

Replace Strange with Morbius. Throw in Hannibal King as the fourth member.

A Netflix show centered around Blaze then bringing in Robbie to help out in some shit.

@THATguy01 - I've never been a Ghost Rider fan, so I don't know the quality of Robbie's source material in comparison to Johnny's. However, I'd prefer a series focused on Robbie with Johnny as the occasional mentor and ally. Kinda similar to the Danny Rand/Orson Randall dynamic in Immortal Iron Fist.
