Will Luke Cage Return to the MCU?
In an Interview with The view, Luke Cage actor Mike Colter commented on his potential return to Marvel, touching on those recent photos of him alongside Jessica Jones star Krysten Ritter.
December 2021 finished off a monumental year for Marvel Studios fans. There are several reasons for that, but one of the biggest was the return of two former Netflix Marvel characters: Charlie Cox’s Matt Murdock/Daredevil, and Vincent D’Onofrio’s Kingpin.
Many thought they’d never see the two again on screen, but thankfully fortune had other plans and a revival of Netflix’s Daredevil is now in the works at Marvel Studios and Disney+.
Mike Cotler’s Luke Cage, Krysten Ritter’s Jessica Jones, Jon Bernthal’s Punisher, and Finn Jone’s Iron Fist-none have shown their faces, with only a few outlier rumors fueling the fire of those various potential returns.
Luke Cage’s Future In MCU
With the return of Daredevil, it’s seemingly only a matter of time before those previous Netflix heroes come back into the fold. Throughout the years, the actors behind them have been asked time and time again if they were interested in returning. Across the board, that answer is a resounding Yes.
Colter’s strawberry patch excuse does seem plausible and would be an oddly thorough detail to include in his exculpation if it wasn’t true. Needless to say, my fingers are crossed that both of them get the formal invite back into the Marvel Studios fold sooner rather than later. It sure seems like that newly announced Daredevil Show could be the perfect place to do so.
Luke Cage Responds to Those Revival Rumors
Luke Cage star Mike Colter responded to those revival rumors. It seems he has not been informed of any plans for a Netflix Defender-verse reunion right now. Marvel fans have been wondering all the time if they could see all of the Defenders in the MCU after Charlie Cox’s grand return in Spider-Man: No Way Home.
Therefore, Colter has seen the Fan’s cries and decided to respond during an appearance on The View. They asked him all about the Social Media post that the United Krysten Ritter with her old co-star. Jessica Jones star posted the picture and people went bananas.
Season 2 of Luke Cage ended with the death of Mariah Stokes-Dillard (Alfred Woodard), a New York City councilwoman and crimelord who had been an enemy of Cage for years. In her will, Mariah leaves Cage the deed to Harlem’s Paradise, a nightspot that served the crime families. With Mariah gone and the criminal underworld in chaos as new gangsters via for powers, Cage accepted the club and decided to confirm himself as the “sheriff” of Harlem…although his ally, Detective Misty Knight, worried that the power may end up turning Cage into another kingpin pursuing absolute control of everything north of 110th street.
