Today, we have new photos from the set that could offer a few potential SPOILERS, so be sure to read on at your own risk. These photos feature series starMike Colter, whose title character has seemingly gotten in some trouble with the law.
These photos showLuke Cagegetting into a physical confrontation with a few NYPD cops, although no details were given about the scenes the actor was shooting. We also don’t know where exactly in the series these scenes take place, but hopefully we’ll have more details soon. Last week, a rumor surfaced that the streaming service is eyeing a late summer debut for the show, but that hasn’t been confirmed.Marvel’s Luke Cageis the third of four new shows on Netflix, the first of which,Marvel’s Daredevil, debuted in April, followed byMarvel’s Jessica Jonesin November. The second season ofMarvel’s Daredevilis debuting in March, andJessica Joneswas just renewed last week for a second season, and it isn’t known when that will debut yet. Netflix’s Ted Sarandos said at the TCA winter tour that it will be a range of about eight to 15 months between each show’s debut, but that might not be the case withMarvel’s Luke Cage.
IfMarvel’s Luke Cagedebuts in August, it will be six months afterDaredevil Season 2. It’s worth noting that the first season ofMarvel’s Jessica Jonesdebuted seven months afterMarvel’s Daredevil, but there is only a five-month gap between the first season ofMarvel’s Jessica Jonesand the second season ofMarvel’s Daredevil. We’ll have to wait and see if Netflix will issue an official premiere date for the next series soon.
