It certainly sounds like the comic romance between Luke Cage and Jessica Jones is still going to happen, but it’s going to be a slow burn.
With Marvel’s The Defenders less than a month away, it should come as no surprise that the cast and crew were on hand to talk up the show at Comic-Con, revealing how the show will hand the relationship between Luke Cage (Mike Colter) and Jessica Jones (Krysten Ritter).
That’s better than nothing, and with any luck The Defenders won’t end with Jessica shooting Luke in the head again.
They haven’t seen each other in the MCU since Luke awoke from the coma that Jessica put him in, however.
