With the aforementioned
Daredevil
returning March 18,
Luke Cage
would seem to fill the Netflix/Marvel quota for 2016. As Netflix boss Ted Sarandos said in January, “It’s not the goal to put out more than one or two a year,” given the motion-picture quality of each series.
Marvel TV boss Jeph Loeb told
Adweek
that following
Luke Cage
‘s debut,
Iron Fist
Season 1,
Jessica Jones
Season 2 or the team-up series
The Defenders
are among the candidates to be next in queue.
Among
Luke Cage
‘s supporting cast,
House of Cards
‘ Mahershala Ali will play night club owner Cornell “Cottonmouth” Stokes,
Sons of Anarchy
‘s Theo Rossi is career criminal/Luke Cage nemesis Shades (AKA Alvarez), Alfre Woodard has been cast a local politician who may or may not be a version of the Marvel villain Black Mariah, Simone Missick is playing Harlem police detective Misty Knight, and Sonia Braga will play Soledad Temple, mother to Claire Temple (
