Netflix Luke Cage series
 

The Luke Cage cast is really shaping up!

Mike Colter is Luke Cage (he'll first show up in Jessica Jones tho)
Also cast is Theo Rossi, Rosario Dawson and Alfre Woodard in unknown roles.
Meanwhile, newcomer Simone Messick has been cast as Misty Knight! :o http://www.comicbookresources.com/ar...s-misty-knight

OH, Juice from Sons of Anarchy is gonna be in this? Cool.

Awesome man, this is great news.

Now how about Punisher, Blade, Howard the Duck, Jessica Jones etc. yet?

Jessica's got her own show coming soon. It's where Luke first shows up. Punisher is in the 2nd season of Daredevil.

Meanwhile more casting for Luke Cage. Mahershala Ali has been cast as Cottonmouth. In the comics Luke was in possession of drugs stolen from Cottonmouth (a drug lord) and was sent to prison (where he got his powers). But it looks like this is a different take on Cottonmouth all together.

There is a teaser trailer for Luke Cage at the end of Daredevil S2. Pretty cool to see to them mimic the MCU with the after credits scenes.

This is interesting. I hope this is true because I want the Defenders to be a part of Infinity War.

Huh. Fascinating.

Bad news fellas

Huh. That does make more sense.

I mean, honestly... Luke Cage, Daredevil, and Jessica Jones are all pretty homebound. I don't see any of them doing much globetrotting or Avenging.

So basically the rumors of Marvel TV and Marvel Studios not getting along at all are true.

Good. Not everything needs to be a crossover.

We've known that for a LONG time, Pug. :tlol: Exhibit A: Agents of SHIELD and EVERYTHING about it. :trazz:

I was referring to the recent rumors that Marvel TV wouldn't allow their Netflix characters to be in Infinity War.

Ah, got it. But yeah, I'm really not surprised that division still exists.

And personally, I prefer having Daredevil, Jessica, Luke, and the rest of Hell's Kitchen isolated from the MCU at large. The more you force or weave connections, the more unwieldy something becomes. I want the heroes of Hell's Kitchen to be as streamlined and excellent for as long as possible.

Honestly, they should be kept separate. It'd be weird to see Jessica Jones not making hardcore dark quips, and it'd also be weird to not see Daredevil breaking people in two. Plus, the whole point of the Defenders is so they can have what basically is the darker version of the Avengers.

Also kinda more grounded. No evil AIs or alien hordes... evil mystic ninjas or Purple Children, that I'm down for.

I was kind of on edge looking for a larger MCU connection during season one of DD and JJ, but this past season was so good that I quit caring. There were plenty of little connections to Agents of SHIELD though.

AW YISS.

That music... not at all what I expected and yet, perfect.

Wu Tang Forever.

I'm so ready for this!

Looks kind of meh to me. I got more of a buzz from Jessica Jones marketing which contributed to me really enjoying that show, this looks like generic action shlock

Looks good, but a bit cheesy. I'll still watch the hell out of it. Actor is perfect.

Dunno anything about this series or character but that teaser has sold me on it. Will definitely check out the first episode, based on that.

This is mostly a DD and JJ recap, but it has plenty of new Cage footage.

First 3 episode titles are Gang Starr tracks. Pretty cool.

:tcool:

Marvel/Netflix is gonna be three for three. Daredevil, Jessica Jones, and now this.

AW YEAH.

Looks alright. I just hope it's better than Jessica Jones.

Yeah, that works for me.
I especially like the call back to his comic outfit in the flashback.

That was nifty.

Still has my interest.

2 minute featurette about the show's music. Looks like Method Man was pretty involved in the soundtrack selection and score. I'm so excited for this.

"You want some?" :tcool:

That guy's hand... YEEESH. :teek: I flinched.

Another great trailer.

Ah, I'm gonna love this! Method Man cameo was hilarious. Makes me mad they cut the Ghostface scene from Iron Man all over again.

I didn't see Jessica Jones, but I may have to watch this! Looks awesome.
