Following the Claire Temple and Misty Knight posters, Marvel has released Luke Cage character banners for Mariah Dillard and Shades Alvarez.
The latter is played by Sons of Anarchy actor Theo Rossi, and is a full-on villain in the comics - but, fans can expect a bit of ambiguity when it comes to this guy's motivations on the show.
The great Alfre Woodard (last seen in Captain America: Civil War as a different character) will portray the politician sister of notorious gunrunner Cornell Stokes. Apparently, she truly wants to make Harlem a better place, but is always in danger of being sabotaged by her brother's criminal activities.
After a sabotaged experiment leaves him with super strength and unbreakable skin, Luke Cage becomes a fugitive trying to rebuild his life in modern day Harlem, New York City. But he is soon 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.
Luke Cage punches onto Netflix on September 30th.
