Well, it seems like The Defenders are absolutely going to have their hands full next month when they band together to take on Alexandra and the Hand, which now includes the ultimate weapon in Elektra.
While a new trailer would've been more than enough to tide over fans until August 18, Netflix has gone ahead and released the first clip from the series, which features a tense conversation between Sigourney Weaver's mysterious Alexandra and Wai Ching Ho's previously unflappable Madame Gao, who looks thoroughly spooked here.
Check out the clip below:
