First Defenders Teaser Confirms 2017 Release Date
Marvel debuted the first teaser trailer for its upcoming Netflix supergroup series The Defenders at the Luke Cage 2016 San Diego Comic-Con panel, confirming the show is set for a 2017 release.
Much like The Defenders will be an amalgam of the four series that come before it — Daredevil, Jessica Jones, Luke Cage, and Iron Fist — the trailer too cobbles together logos, title, and other imagery from the various series.
All set to Nirvana's "Come As You Are," the trailer highlights the four heroes before Daredevil's Stick (Scott Glenn) comes in via voiceover to address The Defenders.
"You think the four of you can save New York? You can't even save yourselves," he says before the show's official logo appears.
