In just a few short days, the second ofNetflix’s superhero shows,Marvel’s Jessica Jones, will debut, following the successful launch ofMarvel’s Daredevilearlier this year. The streaming service hasn’t announced a premiere date forSeason 2ofMarvel’s Daredevil, but we know production is already under way. Earlier today, the officialDaredevil Twitteraccount released a cryptic trailer for the upcoming season, which could tease thatLuke Cage(Mike Colter) may be making his presence known to Matt Murdock (Charlie Cox) and his team, in an unusual way. The trailer doesn’t feature any stars of the show, but it does tease that Matt’s Hell’s Kitchen hangout has had a change of ownership.
In the first season ofDaredevil, Josie’s was a local Hell’s Kitchen bar that both Matt and his law partner Foggy Nelson (Elden Henson) would frequent, along with Karen Page (Deborah Ann Woll). During Karen’s first trip to Josie’s, Foggy explained that the city tried to shut down Josie’s several times, but they helped the owner, Josie, with their liens and helped keep the place afloat. This trailer reveals that the neon sign has now changed from Josie’s to Luke’s, teasing thatLuke Cagemay have bought the bar.
It’s possible that Luke Cage’s ownership of Josie’s could be revealed at some point duringMarvel’s Jessica Jones. Last month, a rumor surfaced that Matt Murdock will make an appearance onMarvel’s Jessica Jones, but that was never confirmed. Still, we do know that Daredevil, Jessica Jones,Luke CageandIron Fistwill eventually join forces and becomeThe Defendersin a miniseries slated to debut on Netflix sometime in 2017.
We also know thatMike Colterwill appear in several episodes of Jessica Jones, so it seems possible that three of these four heroes could all meet during the first season.Rosario Dawsonis also coming back forSeason 2ofMarvel’s DaredevilasNight Nurse, and the character has also been confirmed to appear in both Jessica Jones andLuke Cage. The only missing piece of the puzzle is Marvel’s Iron Fist, who has still not been cast yet.
Back in April, actorRyan Phillipperevealed he was in talks for aMarvelTV series, with many speculating that he could be portraying Marvel’s Iron Fist. That series still doesn’t have a writer or showrunner attached yet, but perhaps we’ll find out more about this show very soon. Until then, take a look at this mysterious video forSeason 2ofMarvel’s Daredevil. Do you think Luke Cage will be the new owner of Josie’s inMarvel’s Daredevil?
