The Ghost Rider did appear in a few episodes of "Agents of SHIELD". This movie will show his new origins. Or maybe it will take place after "Agents of SHIELD" and they will show flashbacks on how he became the Spirit of Vengeance. Johnny Blaze is an overconfident motorcycle stuntman. When his father figure, stuntman Crash Simpson, is diagnosed with cancer forcing him to retire, a mysterious stranger approaches Johnny saying he could cure the cancer if he just signed a contract, which he does. Crash's cancer is cured but he later dies from one of his stunts. Apparently, unbeknownst to Johnny, by signing the contract he has sold his soul to the demon Mephisto (who is basically the Devil himself). Right when Blaze is at the end of his rope in his daredevil career, evil spirits emerge from the shadows at night and some try to steal people's souls. That same night, Blaze transforms into a fiery skeleton monster with a powerful flaming motorcycle, and a red-hot chain that he uses to wrangle demons, disintegrating them to ash. He also has the power to sense whether someone is guilty or innocent regarding sins.
