Gabriel Luna was set to star in the series about a motorcyclist, Robbie Reyes, who makes a deal with the underworld that leads to him to be bound to a demon who rides a fiery, spectral motorcycle. Reyes struggles to control the demon and use him to protect those who need it.<\/p>\n<p><em>Ghost Rider<\/em> was ordered by Hulu back in May along with an adaptation of another horror-tinged, supernatural-rooted comic book series <em>Helstrom<\/em>. The second series is still on track for a 2020 premier.<\/p>\n<p>Luna initially played the character for a several episode story arc on <em>Agents Of SHIELD<\/em> back in 2016. And while there appeared to be no direct connections between <em>Agents Of SHIELD<\/em> and the new series, Luna had stated that the characters was essentially &#8220;the same guy.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>It is not clear if Marvel will shop the project elsewhere. One place it won\u2019t be going to will be Disney+, the streaming outlet for Marvel\u2019s corporate overlord. <em>Ghost Rider<\/em> initially was shopped to Hulu because of its expected horror elements, something that kept it away from the more family-oriented Disney+.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\">The supernatural superhero comic book adaptation has been shut down while in development.<\/div>\n<p> <a class=\"mh-excerpt-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/2019\/09\/25\/hulu-ghost-rider\/\" title=\"Hulu Halts Development On MARVEL\u2019S GHOST RIDER Series\">[click for more]<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":46693,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_ef_editorial_meta_date_first-draft-date":"","_ef_editorial_meta_paragraph_assignment":"","_ef_editorial_meta_checkbox_needs-photo":"","_ef_editorial_meta_number_word-count":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[10285],"tags":[9762,2458,305,564],"series":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-46692","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-tv-news","8":"tag-gabriel-luna","9":"tag-ghost-rider","10":"tag-hulu","11":"tag-marvel-studios"},"aioseo_notices":[],"nelio_content":{"autoShareEndMode":"never","automationSources":{"useCustomSentences":false,"customSentences":[]},"efiAlt":"","efiUrl":"","followers":[2],"highlights":[],"isAutoShareEnabled":false,"networkImageIds":[],"permalinkQueryArgs":[],"series":[],"suggestedReferences":[]},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/46692","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=46692"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/46692\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/46693"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=46692"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=46692"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=46692"},{"taxonomy":"series","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/series?post=46692"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
