No Surprise Here: ‘Luke Cage’ Is Getting A Second Season!

by Derek Kraneveldt

Briefly: Always forward.

Finally, after way, way too long a wait, Netflix has confirmed that Luke Cage will be receiving a second season.

Naturally, Netflix didn’t reveal just when we’ll be able to watch the next set of episodes, but I’d imagine it’ll be quite some time, seeing as we still have The Defenders, Iron Fist, and more Jessica Jones to get through first.

For now, take a look at the reveal teaser below, and we’ll be sure to share more as soon as the news comes in.

Jeph Loeb, Executive Producer and Marvel’s Head of Television, moderated the NYCC panel Marvel and Netflix and was packed with surprise appearances and announcements. Is started off with the cast of ‘Iron Fist’ making an appearance to introduce the teaser trailer.  Surprise guests included an appearance by Erik LaRay Harvey (Diamondback), Jon Bernthal (Frank Castle/The Punisher), and Deborah Ann Woll (Karen Page), which it was announced that she will be joining the cast of ‘The Punisher’.

There was one more surprise guest, Sigourney Weaver (Avatar and Aliens), and it was revealed that she would be playing the villain of the series. There was no announcement of who she would actually be portraying. There is no doubt that the Hand will be a force to reckon with, so maybe she will be a part of the clan.

The Key Art For ‘Luke Cage’ Is Here!

by Derek Kraneveldt

Briefly: Following that phenomenal sizzle reel that Netflix released last month at SDCC, the company has finally debuted the key art for its next highly anticipated Marvel series, Luke Cage.

We’re still way too far off from the September 30th premiere, which really, really can’t come close enough, but… at least we can re-watch Stranger Things a few more times before this one finally releases?

After a sabotaged experiment leaves him with super strength and unbreakable skin, Luke Cage (Mike Colter) becomes a fugitive who attempts to rebuild his life in modern day Harlem, New York City. But soon he is pulled out of the shadows and must fight a battle for the heart of his city – forcing him to confront a past he had tried to bury.

Take a look at the art below, and be sure to let us know if you’re excited for this one.

SDCC 2016: Yep. The Trailer For ‘Luke Cage’ Is Insanely Bad-Ass!

by Derek Kraneveldt

Briefly: Aw yiss.

We were all expecting to see some footage from Marvel / Netflix’ Luke Cage during the San Diego Comic-Con panel, but I certainly didn’t expect to be blown away by the footage that was shown.

Yeah, it’s definitely a teaser, and doesn’t reveal much at all about what we’ll see in the series, but I’ll be damned if it isn’t a blast to watch. The sound track and the slow-motion action fit together perfectly, and we cannot freaking wait for the September 30th debut.
