Heroes Unite, Reluctantly, In The First Official Trailer For THE DEFENDERS


The fervor didn't exactly rest easy earlier this year in all the debate over how to receive Netflix's first season of Marvel's Iron Fist. It wasn't a perfect outing for the character as the fourth in a line-up of four for the popular streaming service and I'm sure it will be a deal to cover in the months leading up to a second season.

Putting that aside, we finally have the first official trailer for The Defenders in which our heroes our aforementioned Finn Jones's Iron Fist joining Charlie Cox's Daredevil, Krysten Ritter's Jessica Jones and Mike Colter's Luke Cage. Scott Glenn is expected to return and much to our delight as Daredevil cohort, Stick, with reprising actresses Rosario Dawson reprising her role as superhero confidant Claire Temple, Simone Missick as Misty Knight, and with actress Sigourney Weaver making her debut as one of the show's key villains. Martial arts action star and actor Marko Zaror will also have a role in the first episode of which the intial two are directed by S.J. Clarkson (Marvel’s Jessica Jones, Vinyl, Orange is the New Black)
“Marvel’s The Defenders” follows Daredevil, Jessica Jones, Luke Cage and Iron Fist. A quartet of singular heroes with one common goal - to save New York City. This is the story of four solitary figures, burdened with their own personal challenges, who realize they just might be stronger when teamed together.
August 18 is the date for the show's 8-episode run. Check out the trailer!
