Netflix has released the key art for its new original series Marvel’s Luke Cage, the third show in the Defenders series to launch on the internet TV network.
The series stars Mike Colter as Luke Cage (previously introduced in Marvel’s Jessica Jones). The new series follows his revolution after he has relocated to Harlem and is in the process of picking up the pieces following his failed relationship with Jessica Jones.
