The announcement of Disney’s inevitable streaming service raised a number of questions on the TV side, including whether Marvel series would follow their movie counterparts in leaving Netflix.
We’ll likely hear more on the Marvel TV component of Disney’s streaming service in the coming year, but consider The Defenders safe for now.
The Marvel movie and TV split has always been notably messy, but none of the Netflix series seem like tonal matches for Disney-branded content regardless.
The six Defenders series now seem likely to remain in their original home, however, according to comments from Netflix Chief Content Officer Ted Sarandos.
