Midland Circle Security Elevator B Reveals Marvel’s The Defenders
Thanks to some footage from Midland Circle Security Elevator B, we have eyes on Marvel’s The Defenders. Plus a Netflix premiere date.
Daredevil, Jessica Jones, Luke Cage, and Iron Fist will combine their efforts on August 18, 2017 to take down a villainous Alexandra (Sigourney Weaver) when The Defenders debuts. Comic-Con last year gave us a teaser but using old footage, this new video shows Charlie Cox, Krysten Ritter, Mike Colter, and Finn Jones going to work.
The video also slyly revealed the release date with the time stamp in the upper right corner as well as a viral site with the IP address in the left corner. It leads to NYBulletin.com, a fake newspaper tumblr account you can follow for updates and stuff. [UPDATE: Pretty sure that’s Weaver voicing the elevator in this clip!]
In related news, remember when Ritter discussed the lack of Jessica Jones action figures? There’s a new one on the way from Loot Crate. But it does not come “complete.”
Needs more cartoon-looking whiskey. https://t.co/71ivHCcHnK

I can’t imagine Danny Rand and Luke Cage being friends. Does Danny have a different personality in the comics? I’ve never been much of an Iron Fister.
Oh, *that’s* why (I’m told) Danny doesn’t wear his traditional costume in his series—Matt stole his look back in Daredevil season one! ;) Dang, I really need to catch up with the Netflix shows. I still haven’t finished DD season two…
Still shoulda done it. Bright yellow, HIDE THE ACTOR’S FACE FOR THE FIGHT SCENES SO YOU CAN USE STUNT DOUBLES
ahem
Um
Yeah, I know, they didn’t want to be samesy-samesy. But they should have found some way to incorporate a mask, because the show would have benefited immensely from it.
I never noticed the nybulletin site, that’s pretty cool. I really dig that kind of marketing. Otherwise, count me very interested in Defenders.
