Adventure into Fear (planned franchise)

Daimon and Ana Helstrom, the children of a powerful serial killer, hunt down the worst of humanity.[1]

Hulu ordered Helstrom, based on the characters Daimon and Satana Hellstrom, for a 10-episode series in May 2019.[1][6] Paul Zbyszewski was set as showrunner and executive producer alongside Loeb.[1] The series cast, headlined by Tom Austen and Sydney Lemmon respectively as Daimon and Ana Helstrom, was announced in early October with the start of production in Vancouver.[6] Filming wrapped in March 2020.[10] The series is expected to premiere in 2020.[9]

On the Texas–Mexico border, Robbie Reyes avenges the innocent by unleashing the demonic Ghost Rider.[1]

During development on the fourth season of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., Marvel suggested that the series introduce Ghost Rider,[11] after the character's film rights had returned to Marvel from Sony in May 2013.[12] The Robbie Reyes version of the character was chosen over other versions from the comics due to his family values,[13] and to help the series distance itself from Sony's Ghost Rider films that starred Nicolas Cage as the Johnny Blaze version of the character.[14] Gabriel Luna was announced to be playing Reyes at the 2016 San Diego Comic-Con.[15] A month later, Marvel Television head Jeph Loeb said the character "could venture into other sections" of the MCU, depending on the audience's response to his appearance in S.H.I.E.L.D. Luna expressed interest in reprising his role outside of the series, adding that he "signed on the line to do all the work necessary".[16] That October, Luna said there had been "rumblings" about a spin-off for the character, but reiterated that it would depend on audience response.[17]

Hulu ordered Ghost Rider to series in May 2019, with Ingrid Escajeda set as showrunner and executive producer alongside Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s Paul Zbyszewski and Loeb, and Luna reprising his role.[1] Rather than being a traditional spin-off from S.H.I.E.L.D., Hulu described the series as a new story that "lives unto its own" but is about the same character.[18] The series was set to be a co-production between Marvel Television and ABC Signature Studios.[1] Escajeda was drawn to the series' conflicted characters and horror tone, and said that she would be targeting both existing fans of the property and general audiences with the series.[18] In July 2019, Loeb stated that the new series would reference Reyes's role in Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.[19] That September, Hulu chose not to move forward with the project due to creative differences.[5] Luna said this news was surprising and he had been "ready to rock on the new show", but said it was "the nature of this business" and that he had "the time of [his] life" playing the character already.[20]

Loeb stated in August 2019 that there were several "Adventure into Fear" series being developed for Hulu that had not yet been announced,[3] and reiterated this in October.[6] However, Marvel Television was no longer developing new series in December 2019.[7]
