‘Marvel’s The Defenders’ – The show will feature a crossover team-up between Daredevil, Jessica Jones, Luke Cage, and Iron Fist as they face their biggest threat yet. Marvel’s Iron Fist doesn’t have an official release date just yet other than “soon”, but this is definitely looking like it could be the next great, binge-worthy series. Here are three new Marvel shows set to premiere in 2016.

Luke Cage is ready to introduce himself to the world-by smashing his enemies through walls.
“The Defenders” teaser hinted at more than you’d think. It will depict Danny’s return to New York City after years of being missing, and illustrate his fight against the criminal elements corrupting the city with the use of his fiery Iron Fist.
There’s one lone voice-over in the teaser: Scott Glenn’s Stick, the very un-Obi-Wan mentor of Matt Murdock from the past two seasons of Marvel’s Daredevil.
Finn Jones plays the title character of Iron Fist/Danny Rand. However, the Defenders won’t take on epic battles – that’s what “The Avengers” are for anyway.

Also starring Mahershala Ali as Cottonmouth, Rosario Dawson, reprising her role as nurse Claire Temple, Sonia Braga as Soledad Temple (Claire Temple’s Mom), Frank Whaley as Detective Scarfe and Simone Missick as Misty Knight, “Luke Cage” drops September 30 on Netflix. It makes sense: Only a well-trained army can stand a chance against Luke Cage (impenetrable skin), Jessica Jones (a hard-drinking muscle), Iron Fist (a magic kung-fu guy), and Daredevil (a parkour ninja).
