Nicolas Cage portrayed the character in the standalone 2007 film Ghost Rider. It followed the story of Cage’s character in which he sold his soul to save a loved one, in exchange for him becoming a vigilante that punishes evil.
A spinoff series from Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. was in the works headlining the Robbie Reyes version of Ghost Rider played by Gabriel Luna. Luna’s Ghost Rider was introduced during the show’s fourth season. It is not confirmed as to whether Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. is connected to the MCU or a standalone project.
Horowitz's full interview with Gosling drops next week.
