The question of whether Netflix’s Marvel shows are canon to Marvel’s cinematic universe remains blurry, but if Daredevil: Born Again proved anything, it’s that fans don’t really care. That Charlie Cox was able to return as the Devil of Hell’s Kitchen at all is a feat that most assumed would never happen, and Born Again redefined the possibilities for Daredevil and his fellow Defenders. Krysten Ritter is now set to reprise her role as Jessica Jones in Born Again Season 2, and Marvel Television is reportedly “exploring” the possibilities of a true Defenders reunion.
With Born Again already reuniting half of the street-level super-team, does that mean Mike Colter’s Luke Cage and Finn Jones’ Iron Fist are waiting in the wings? Jones has expressed plenty of interest in returning, but Colter has been coy. “I was giving no one hope before,” he said during a recent appearance on Shawn Stockman’s On That Note podcast. After a promising development, however, we may be closer to seeing him step back into the MCU.
