Normally that would be my stance as well. I despise Sony since my Everquest days, but have nothing against their game system users. After this little BS that Sony pulled with the Avengers game, all bets are off. I want to see MS crush them.

I see where you're coming from. No matter how you look at it, platform exclusive games is a pain in the ass.

My only objection to that is the Xbox exclusivity . I'd prefer something available to everyone.

This pretty much confirms rumors of DD in Spidey, Kingpin in Hawkeye and very likely She Hulk having Matt. I would love Marvel Knights movie or series that would re establish all street level heroes in MCU.

I thought the rumor was Jessica for She-Hulk.

No surprise there

After watching One Night in Miami last year, I love Aldis Hodge, who played Jim Brownin the film.I would've loved for him to play Luke Cage, or even a recast T'Challa picking up for Chadwick Boseman. Unfortunately,I think Hodgeis going to be busy playing Hawkmanin DC's Black Adam movie.

"....Jessica Jones was good... but do we really need more of her? Ehh... As for Luke Cage...he needs to be recast if they do. And is that worth the headache of the fans to even try?"

I'd say Yes and Yes. Jessica, handled correctly, could easily do spots on any Daredevil project, the upcoming Moon Knight and/or She-Hulk, and I'd love to see her interact with SHIELD on the bigger screen.

Mike Colter is a fine actor but he never really captured Luke Cage; part of that is because the Netflix Cage was a serene, neighborhood big brother type to everyone as opposed to the more in-your-face Cage from the comics. I don't know why they made him a preacher's son from Georgia, even worse, a sherriff/cop, but they did and he certainly wasn't that in the comics. I'm all for recasting and all for a Luke Cage who more closely resembles what he's supposed to be. I'd be concerened about continuity but they never affirmed that the Netflix 'verse as the same as the MCU one.

Well, the leaked image let us know about that, but that being said...

But I have a question, are the Netflix series worth a rewatch or they are just going to ignore them???

I would not be surprised if Daredevil and his supporting cast and the Punisher are the only members of the Netflix group that Disney makes any effort to incorporate into the main MCU. They won't give the Punisher another show but maybe guest appearances or cameos. With Daredevil, they don't really have to acknowledge much of the Netflix series because of where season 3 left off: Matt and Foggy are lawyering again with Karen working for them. Kingpin may be in prison or may be out; we'll find out in Hawkeye, most likely. And a few villains like Bullseye and Gladiator are waiting in the wings, either of which could be recast although I hope not.

I do not believe we will ever see the Danny Rand Iron Fist again. I believe Marvel made the changes to Shang-Chi's lore and powers so that he could essentially function as the Iron Fist of the MCU, and they can drop all the baggage of the Netflix series that most people didn't like, as well as the controversy over whitewashing a martial arts character.

Jessica Jones was good... but do we really need more of her? Ehh... As for Luke Cage, I like the character and I would love to see more of him in the MCU, but I think he needs to be recast if they do. And is that worth the headache of the fans to even try?

I thought that as well!!

Really enjoyed Bethel as Bullseye/ Fake DD. wilsons portrayal was as understated as it was excellent.

The writers really got the Bullseye dynamic. There was a scene at the newspaper office where Matt was kicking Bullseyes (in the DD suit) butt in an up close fight. But then Bullseye created separation and thus distance and started using office supplies as weapons and turned the tide of the fight. Just excellent understanding of the characters.

be nice if they can pull Bethel back as well

I hope they retain as much of the cast as possible.I only just finally watched season 3 this past week.I found the Netflix shows started strong and then the quality dipped andI stopped caring years ago (never even finished season 1 ofIron Fist or The Defenders). But the third season of Daredevil was astounding.

So yeah, by all means, bring back Elden Hanson as Foggy, Deborah Ann Woll as Karen, Vincent D'Onofrio as Wilson Fisk, Wilson Bethel as Dex/Bullseye, and Matt Gerard as Melvin Potter/Gladiator. Give the latter two upgrades so we can see themin costumes.

I do believe the series reached a point of critical mass with the realistic grim urban vigilante.I think a Disney+ series or movie could take the same world of characters and lighten the tone a little bit.Inject more fun, swashbuckling man-without-fearinto the world. Let Matt square off against some of his more colorful villains, like Leap-Frog, Mr. Fear, and Stiltman. Yes, Stitlman. Don't tell me he's too ridiculous for a universe that has Groot and WandaVision.
