Marvel's Defenders Spoilers: Charlie Cox, Krysten Ritter, Mike Colter Fight Netflix's Elektra?
With the lead roles already casted, Netflix is closer than ever to Marvel's The Defenders. With a deadline set to begin production, has it been decided that Daredevil (Charlie Cox), Jessica Jones (Krysten Ritter) and Luke Cage (Mike Colter) will fight Elektra (Elodie Yung)?
As we previously mentioned, Matt Murdock (Cox) was a young boy when he was struck blind after a near fatal car accident. Though everyone thinks he lives in complete darkness, radioactive chemicals gave him back his sight. By day, Murdock pretends to be the blind lawyer attending courtroom battles. The man without fear continues his crime-fighting adventures after defeating Wilson Fisk (Vincent D'Onofrio), which nearly came with a heavy cost. The second season hit the man without fear with The Punisher (Jon Bernthal) and Elektra (Yung).
We also mentioned, Jessica Jones (Ritter) suffers from post-traumatic stress due to her dark times with Kilgrave (David Tennant). As the sole owner of Alias Private Investigations, Jessica is drawn to a mysterious man, Luke Cage (Colter) who seems to hiding a secret of his own. Wanting revenge for what she did to him, Kilgrave is using to make those around Jones suffer before he finally meets her face-to-face.
Game of Thrones actor Finn Jones has been cast as Danny Rand, who will become the martial arts fighter, Iron Fist. Jones will make his first appearance in Luke Cage.
In an interview with IGN, the Gods of Egypt actress reveals if her character will pop up in The Defenders, "I would love to appear in The Defenders. I don't know - because hopefully she'll maybe be on the bad side. I don't know - I don't know what they'd do with Elektra in The Defenders but that would be a good dynamic I think - to be confronted by these four superheroes and I think it would be interesting - I'd be curious to see what they do."
Jessica Jones and Daredevil Season 1 and 2 are available to bing-watch on Netflix. Luke Cage will premiere on Netflix September 30.
No word yet on when The Defenders and Iron Fist will debut on Netflix.
