No Plans for Defenders Season 02?

No Plans for Defenders Season 02?

, , 0

Netflix is about to get started on the next wave of their Marvel shows. Jessica Jones Season 02 debuts tomorrow. Luke Cage Season 02 is set to arrive June 22nd, Daredevil Season 03 is in production right now, Iron Fist Season 02 is soon to follow, and Punisher will film after that. If you’ve lost count, that’s five different Netflix/Marvel shows, but there’s one more that people are interested in, Defenders. Defenders was the culmination of the first four shows (Punisher came after) and showed the heroes teaming up to save New York. But, the season wasn’t well received, and its left many wondering if the show would return for a second season. Jessica Jones herself, Krysten Ritter, doesn’t think it will: “Well, I think Jessica was pretty well received. People were excited to see her again, so that made us happy because Jessica [Jones] is the next up,” Ritter told Vulture. “Y’know, I had a great time doing The Defenders and honestly, it was such a good experience that I would even do it

Punisher Will Stand Alone From Other Netflix Series

One of the things that was apparent when Marvel and Netflix teamed up was that it had a very connected universe. And in fact, some of the Defenders showed up in each other series in one way or another. As a result of the success of Daredevil Season 02, The Punisher is getting his own series on Netflix that will release later this year. However, unlike the other Defenders series, this show won’t connect to them, which means it’s going to be a bit more focused on the character and not on some overarching story. According to actor Jon Bernthal, this will be a very grounded series: “We are stripping down every supernatural element,” Bernthal said to Entertainment Weekly. “This show is different. It looks different. Frank is a character rooted in the most basic human emotions… He’s a comic-book character, but he doesn’t fly, he doesn’t have X-ray vision. He’s an unbelievably skilled soldier who’s been very, very angry and very, very hurt.” This feels right given who the Punisher is,

Charlie Cox Talks Defenders Ending

It’s been a few days since Defenders came out, and many are still talking about the ending scene of it, that includes Daredevil actor Charlie Cox. WARNING: MAJOR SPOILERS AHEAD!!!!! At the end of Defenders… Matt Murdock sacrifices himself to ensure that Elektra (under the influence of The Hand) doesn’t get out with the substance that will grant her immortal life. Everyone thinks he’s dead. But…then he appears later on very much alive, and in a nunnery. What’s more, his mother, Maggie, gets namedropped. Fans were quick to point out that this reminds them of the classic Daredevil story “Born Again” in which a similar event happens. So, does this mean we’re potentially getting that story for the already confirmed Season 03 of Daredevil? “For sure,” Cox said he said to Hollywood Reporter. “That’s such an amazing story. Everyone who loves Daredevil loves Born Again. You can’t not. And if that’s the case, then the implications of that would be very exciting to me. That would be great.” However, just because they’re taking notes from

When you talk about the Marvel/Netflix collaborations, Iron Fist will be brought up. Easily the most polarizing of the collaborations, fans hated not only the portrayal of Danny Rand as Iron Fist, but also how the fights were incredibly lackluster. Especially when compared to Daredevil, which in many ways set the standard for brutal, and elegant, fight scenes. However, with Defenders just hours from launch, Iron Fist himself admits that things will be better in this series. During a chat with IGN, actor Finn Jones noted that during the filming of Iron Fist, he barely had time to learn martial arts before doing the fight scenes in the episodes, and that led to the lackluster way the fights went. But with Defenders, that’s no longer the case: “By the time of Defenders, I had been working on the character and training for about seven months, on and off, so by Defenders I was a lot more well-trained than at the beginning of Iron Fist because I had been doing it

We are just days away from the first ever assembling of the Defenders. This 8-part miniseries will bring Daredevil, Jessica Jones, Luke Cage and Iron Fist together to take on The Hand and their mysterious leader Alexandra. This is the culmination of everything Netflix and Marvel have been building since their partnership was revealed a few years ago. But, since we still have a few days, it’s perfectly logical that they release one last trailer to get people hyped. This one is a little more subdued in some ways, but shows off the four “heroes” working together a lot, including a lot of shots of Luke Cage and Danny Rand fighting together, possibly teasing a “Heroes For Hire” thing going on eventually to mimic the comics. What’s also cool is a slightly longer look at Stick, who is apparently one of the forces that will make the Defenders actually happen. https://youtu.be/cvyv2Scr9SU Given how Iron Fist soured the mouths of many fans, people are hoping that Defenders will be a bounce back

Iron Fist’s Personality Was Intentional

Iron Fist’s Personality Was Intentional

When the Netflix/Marvel collaborations began, we were told from the outset that this would be a dark take on these characters. And sure enough, between Daredevil (and his numerous bloody fights and kills), Jessica Jones (and her…uh…scenes with Luke Cage in a bedroom) and Luke Cage (violence, implied discretions) and so far, we got that. But when Iron Fist came around, fans were put off by how light and bubbly Danny Rand was. He was very childish, and he showed very little growth throughout the series in many fans eyes. While at the TCA’s, showrunner for Season 01 Scott Buck revealed to IGN that he wanted Danny Rand to be “always going to see the good side of things and always going to be an optimist.” Even going so far as that he didn’t want him to be a dark character like the other three Defenders. “But do you really want four dark, brooding Defenders?…We created him to fit into that world and be a counterpoint to some of the others,”

Charlie Cox Reveals Why Daredevil Is No More In Defenders

In the Defenders trailer at SDCC, we notice something odd, one that is compounded by released clip, Matt Murdock is no longer Daredevil at the beginning of the series. If you recall, at the end of Daredevil Season 02, Matt failed to fully beat The Hand, Elektra got killed (but she’ll be back…), Foggy and Matt split up lawyer/firm wise, and Matt revealed himself to Karen. Apparently that was enough to make Matt hang up the suit. Which is something that Charlie Cox confirms in an interview with Cinemablend: “At the end of Daredevil season two, everyone failed,” Cox said. “Matt failed, and the consequences were devastating. Six or so months have passed, and he’s had to completely reevaluate everything that he believes, everything that he does. And he’s decided to hang up the suit, as it were. He’s focusing all of his energies on being a pro bono lawyer. And I don’t think he has any interest, really, in being Daredevil anymore.” Now, we also saw at the end of the

Defenders is a culmination of the first two seasons of Daredevil, and the first seasons of Jessica Jones, Luke Cage and Iron Fist. And because of that, the main characters aren’t exactly at the top of their game given the events of how their seasons ended. For when Defenders arrives, Matt Murdock is no longer Daredevil given what happened to Elektra. And in a new clip for Defenders, which takes place in episode 1 of the miniseries, we find out just how deep his guilt goes, and what he’s doing about it. We have a confession… this is from episode 1. #DEFEND pic.twitter.com/76ygeMUlIl — The Defenders (@TheDefenders) July 23, 2017 Defenders arrives August 18th.

The first episode of Defenders was revealed at a panel at San Diego Comic Con. But now, via the official Defenders Twitter feed, we have a clip showing a true meeting of the power players in The Hand, Madame Gao, and the mysterious Alexandra. This clip shows that the plan they made isn’t going to work anymore, and things need to change… Uh, that’s not good. #DEFEND pic.twitter.com/ovzKFB9zzk — The Defenders (@TheDefenders) July 22, 2017 The Defenders arrive August 18th.

At San Diego Comic Con, the Defenders took the stage to talk about what’s coming for the 8-episode miniseries that’s coming in August. This is a first of its kind for Marvel, and it’s apparent that a lot of work went into make this feel like a truly significant thing. A new trailer was shown off, and it confirms a lot of things, not the least of which is that Elektra is being controlled by The Hand and their leaders Alexandra, played by Sigorney Weaver. We also see glimpses of Karen Page, Foggy Nelson, Madam Gao, and more from the other four shows. It all shows how dysfunctional this team is. The Avengers got nothing on them. https://youtu.be/D_6J9BqgonU

The Defenders are coming in August, and with their arrival marks the first true crossover (not counting Clair Temple) that the Netflix shows have had, and many are excited. But, one thing they have lacked…is Stan Lee. Now, eagle-eyed viewers will note that Stan Lee WAS in those shows, but not in the cameo style that he’s done in the Marvel Cinematic Universe films. He’s honestly just been a poster or plaque on the wall most of the time. But now, Netflix (via Netflix Korea) has released an all-new teaser showing Stan Lee in a limo narrating why the Defenders are the “greatest stories ever told”. And what’s best, is that we get a first look at the Punisher showing up in full garb. Just wait until after the credits to see it. 완벽할 필요는 없다. 마블의 아버지 스탠 리가 말하는 영웅의 조건#넷플릭스 #넷플릭스오리지널 #마블 #디펜더스#8월공개 #영웅의조건 pic.twitter.com/HLk9l8a2e9 — Netflix Korea (@NetflixKR) July 20, 2017

Luke Cage and Iron Fist Want To Meet Avengers

Luke Cage and Iron Fist Want To Meet Avengers

Since the debut of the Marvel/Netflix series, one thing has been made very clear, Daredevil, Jessica Jones, Luke Cage, Iron Fist, and even Punisher all exist in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. They reference the Avengers constantly, and there was even rumors that the Defenders could arrive in Infinity War, alas, that wasn’t to be. But, if some of the Netflix characters had their way, they’d want the Avengers to come down to their level for a while: “We’re part of the same universe,” Finn Jones told SFX Magazine. “If there ever was a mash-up between the Avengers and the Defenders, I think it’d be really nice to see the Avengers come to the Netflix world. It’d be way more interesting to see those characters fleshed out the same way as our characters are, rather than just see our characters do some big fucking fight scene! There’s nothing cool about that.” “It would be easier to have them come into our world because it would probably be more believable,” Mike Colter added.
