It’s a regular reunion for the characters of Netflix’s Marvel universe in The Defenders. In addition to the core group of Daredevil (Charlie Cox), Jessica Jones (Krysten Ritter), Luke Cage (Mike Colter), and Iron Fist (Finn Jones), many of the title heroes’ supporting team will also be in the upcoming superhero ensemble series.
Characters from Daredevil like Scott Glenn (Stick) and Elden Henson (Foggy Nelson) will appear as well as Jessica Jones‘ Carrie-Anne Moss (Jeri Hogarth), Eka Darville (Malcolm Ducasse), and Rachael Taylor (Trish Walker). Luke Cage‘s Simone Missick will reprise her role as Misty Knight. Iron Fist‘s Jessica Henwick will also appear as Colleen Wing. Finally, there’s Rosario Dawson who returns as Claire Temple, the Nick Fury of this Netflix and Marvel collaboration.
As it stands three out of the four of Netflix’s Marvel superhero shows have aired, all of which are huge hits. Speaking of which, Marvel was on hand at New York Comic-Con this weekend to drop a little trailer for their final solo hero series, Iron Fist. Finn Jones (Game Of Thrones) plays the title character aka Danny Rand, who as a young orphan trains with martial artists who then endow him with great mystic powers. Rand would then return to New York seeking justice for his parents, who were killed by an associate of theirs.
Netflix has announced the official release date for Iron Fist, the fourth of their Marvel series.
The show follows the previously released Daredevil, which is already through two seasons, Jessica Jones, and the latest, the recently released Luke Cage. Also coming at some point is The Punisher after the fan-favorite character’s appearance in season two of Daredevil, and The Defenders miniseries bringing the various characters together.
