One of the trailers for
The Defenders featured
Luke Cage getting punched in the face by the Iron Fist. That shot seems to be the rocky first interaction of Iron Fist and Luck Cage, something the actors recently teased.
Speaking at San Diego Comic-Con about the new series, Luke Cage actor, Mike Colter, and
Iron Fist actor, Finn Jones, revealed that the two characters will test each other at the beginning of the show.
“I think that’s a little bit surprising, because everyone knows us as being bffs and actually the first time we see each other there’s conflict, and it grounds and roots the characters into reality a little bit better, which I think is really interesting,” said Jones.
“I think it’s just one of those things where Luke has the advantage of years of experience. He’s a little older than Danny, he’s sort of been around, done that. He’s been in prison! He’s got some miles, he’s got some experiences… I’m from the streets, and that’s where we operate,” added Colter.
The Defenders will premiere on August 18, 2018 on Netflix.
