Luke Cage Mike Colter recently attended Wizard World in St. Louis where he spoke about the new upcoming Marvel Netflix series.
“He’s going to do a lot of badass stuff! Prepare for badassery,” Colter said. “Yeah, I’m going to say Sweet Christmas a lot.”

Luke Cage actor Mike Colter told the Collider the following:
The actor has been cast, but he’s in a basement somewhere. When the time is right, they’ll let him up and tell him where he is. I am [excited]. I’ll get a nice little break, after doing Jessica Jones and Luke Cage. Whether I’m in [his show], I don’t know, but there’s The Defenders.
No premiere date has yet been announced for Iron Fist; Daredevil Season 2 premiers March 18th; Luke Cage is speculated to debut in Novmeber, and Jessica Jones has also been announced to be getting a Season 2.

Check out video below of Mike Colter on the Red Carpet of the premeire for Jessica Jones talking about Luke Cage.
The Power Man offers that his Luke Cage series will be different than both Daredevil and Jessica Jones.
“It’s nice to walk into something having a little head start and get a chance to warm up,” Colter said. “You know, stretch it out a bit. Because Jessica Jones is so unique as a series, I’m so happy to be a part of it because Luke Cage is completely different – as Daredevil was completely different – and it’s nice to be a part of something that is unique.”
Colter also offers the following about the start of the Luke Cage series:
“Luke Cage is going to basically find Luke right after Jessica Jones, uptown. He’s licking his wounds, I would say. You are going to know exactly what I mean when I say that, and he’s trying to figure out what’s his next step. It’s hard because he doesn’t know where to go from here. He’s lost a lot, and he’s basically in a state of turmoil.”
Check out more from Colter in the video below.
Jessica Jones can be watched on Netflix, with Luke Cage currently filming and due out in 2016.

Colter will also appear in the Avengers-style team up, The Defenders, which follows Daredevil, Jessica Jones, Luke Cage and Iron Fist.
“This whole Journey now with what’s going on with Luke Cage, it’s very unique,” Colter said. “It’s completely different to the Halo project or other things I’ve done, and it’s very character-driven and very dark and edgy, so I’m excited about it to see where that’s going.”

One of the most anticipated characters to debut on the Marvel Netflix shows is Luke Cage, who will first be appearing in Jessica Jones before the standalone series.
Halo: Nightfall‘s Mike Colter is playing Luke Cage, who offers up some tidbits while talking with the UK’s The List.
Marvel actually gives you a special training class in how not to say too much in interviews [laughs]. We’re in the middle of shooting AKA Jessica Jones and Luke Cage is a very interesting character who just happens to have super strength and unbreakable skin. He’s a neighborhood hero, very much linked to New York and Jessica Jones. It’s all part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe but Luke Cage is a darker, grittier, more tangible character than Iron Man or Thor. He likes to keep things close to his chest, operate on the hush-hush. He has these abilities but he’s not sure how and when to use them. He’s a very nuanced character.
Colter also previously said Luke Cage is geared more toward adults, which will be a differen take than the MCU.

While speaking about the Halo series, Mike Colter lets it be known the new Luke Cage Marvel Netflix series is being aimed at adults.
“It’s geared towards an adult audience, which is something that will be different from the Marvel Cinematic Universe that you’ve seen before on the big screen,” Mike Colter told IGN.
Colter, who plays Locke in the Halo: Nightfall series, continues with mention how excited he is to play the role.
“I’m excited about playing the character because I’ve read the comic books,” Colter said. “They’re very detailed, gritty; the world they’ve written in the comic books is very clear. Marvel does a fantastic job about bringing human stories – because you’re telling big stories with a heart at the center of it – and that’s what connects all of the characters to our audience members. Audience members have to feel connected with these characters, to make them relate to the character’s situations and that’s what you see with all of the Marvel characters.”
Colter will first be appearing in the Jessica Jones series before Luke Cage launches, and Colter says he is happy with what he sees.
“What I’m most excited about is touching on what makes him tick. It feels good to get a character that has such a story, background, and history,” Colter offered. “And when I look at the scripts, I’m really pleased with it because it’s a slow-burn; there’s nothing happening really fast that gets ahead of itself. I’m really with where they’re taking it and how they’re developing the characters, because it’s really cool and it’s geared towards an adult audience, which is something that will be different from the Marvel Cinematic Universe you’ve seen before on the big screen.”
Colter also offers the following about the series approach, which will be different than some of the Marvel movies.
“We have a more gritty, focused story on our heroes and characters that live in New York City, but it’s geared towards a more adult audience and I think that’s the thing about the series that will be different.”
Daredevil premiers on April 10th which launches the Marvel Netflix shows.
