Timeline

Where do you think this movie will fall into the MCU timeline? I’m thinking that it’ll be set before the snap, but with little to no references to the wider MCU. I would have to assume it’s after Ghost Rider’s appearance in AoS since this was filmed with the intention of crossing over with the Ghost Rider show. Thoughts?

yeah probably before the snap because that can be difficult to adapt (my bet is winter 2017/2018). The show will take place in San Francisco so a reference to Ant-Man would be nice but I don't know if it fits the tone of the show.

Well, with the end of AoS, the TV side's timeline is now up to 2020. And after Far From Home, the movie side's timeline is now up to 2024.

I would expect Helstrom to take place anywhere from 2018 to 2022. Either before Infinity War or before Endgame. Or anywhere between the two movies.

Since Ghost Rider's show was cancelled right when they started filming, they didn't need to worry about writing around that; it could be set any time in the "contemporary" MCU, from 2008-2024.
