Although Jessica Jones was filming its second season back-to-back with The Defenders, Luke Cage only recently began principal photography.
Before Luke Cage goes off on his own, though, he’ll be joining Daredevil (Charlie Cox), Jessica Jones (Krysten Ritter), and Iron Fist (Finn Jones) in Netflix’s upcoming team-up series, The Defenders, later this summer, in which they will join forces to take down the Hand — and presumably Elektra (Elodie Yung).
Considering that Luke Cage, played by Mike Colter, is bullet-proof, he doesn’t really care what clothes he’s wearing, especially now that everyone seems to know his identity.
Although we know that Luke Cage survives the upcoming battle with the Hand, that doesn’t mean things won’t be different for him when he returns for his solo series next year.
