He is a main character in the new Halo game. The made a Halo mini-series that was ok but he was the best part.

Now we just need someone like Jensen Ackles, Eric Christian Olsen, or Seann William Scott to play Danny Rand

Olsen is hilarious. Physical enough to do it as well.

At least it's a black actor. You never know these days what the casting will be.

I wonder if Spidey comes to the MCU if they are going to include him in the AKA Jessica Jones series.

As far as Cage is concerned, I hope this guy enjoys egg whites cause he's about to get super ripped.

Cage is one character that I am certain will jump to the screen at some point be it Avengers, Strange or something else.

I imagine if this group of heroes gets a second season, that Jones Cage and Iron Fist merge into a Heroes for Hire series.

Daredevil would remain separate and that would open up three "slots" for Marvel to develop i.e. Punisher, MI:13,etc.

Honestly don't see him as a character that can fit on the small screen from an effects side.

Don't care for that character in general, however I think his BEST fit is in a Dr. Strange movie.

Blade of course could be done on Netflix. T

The question with Season 2 of Netflix would do they continue with the street level guys or do they open up the sandbox more? Obviously the content can be a little more graphic, but it's not something I see the MCU really going all out for (like nudity) because kids will still watch this stuff.

Daredevil is going to give us a good idea of what the boundaries are in this Netflix deal, as well as the Jessica Jones-Luke Cage dynamic.

Mike Colter is an excellent choice! He is one of the best reoccurring characters on The Good Wife, a show with a lot of great reoccurring characters. He also had a small role as one of the SEALs in Zero a Dark Thirty.

He's a solid actor and he should do a good job with the role.

I imagine there was a lot of competition for it, seems like every male black actor in Hollywood mentioned wanting to play Luke Cage over the years.

What about a second spinoff of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. called "The S.W.O.R.D. files" or finally confirming the rumor of "Runaways".
