Synopsis

From Marvel Comics, creators of Spider-Man™, Fantastic Four, and X-Men, comes a new hero… Ghost Rider™. Long ago, superstar motorcycle stunt rider Johnny Blaze (Nicolas Cage) made a deal with the devil to protect the ones he loved most: his father and his childhood sweetheart, Roxanne (Eva Mendes). Now, the Devil has come for his due.

Unfortunately, as a result of this Faustian pact, Blaze becomes cursed with the avenging spirit that takes form only at night, as a demon who rides a flaming motorcycle, intent on sending sinful spirits back to hell. By day, Johnny is a die-hard stunt rider... but at night, in the presence of evil, he becomes the Ghost Rider, a bounty hunter of rogue demons. Forced to do the Devil's bidding, Johnny is determined to confront his fate and use his curse and powers to defend the innocent.

When a twist of fate brings his long-lost love (MENDES) back into his life, Johnny realizes he might have a second chance at happiness - if he can defeat the devil and win back his soul. First he must face Blackheart (BENTLEY), the devil's rebellious son, who threatens to usurp his father's place and bring hell on earth. Only the Ghost Rider stands between mankind and eternal darkness!

Directed by Mark Steven Johnson (DAREDEVIL), GHOST RIDER™ stars Nicolas Cage (NATIONAL TREASURE, GONE IN 60 SECONDS), Eva Mendes (2 FAST 2 FURIOUS, HITCH), Wes Bentley (AMERICAN BEAUTY), Sam Elliott (HULK), Donal Logue (BLADE) and Peter Fonda (THE LIMEY, EASY RIDER).
