That’s a wrap! While no official announcement has been made by Marvel or Netflix, someone has let the cat out of the bag and it looks likeLuke Cageseason 2 has finished filming. Actress Gabrielle Dennis, who joins the cast for the show’s second season, recently took to Instagram to share a handful of photos she took at the wrap party. Where there’s a wrap party, there’s a production that has wrapped, soLuke Cage season 2is one step closer to release. Here’s what she had to say about it in one of her posts.
“Some of you may know that I’ve been working on @marvelslukecage the past several months and last night we got to celebrate a little…HUGE thanks to creator @cheo_hodari_coker and all the producers like @mashaka74 who had a hand in bringing me on board this season! I can NOT wait for you all to catch SEASON 2…coming soon…I just don’t know when yet lol #AboutLastNight #LukeCage #Season2 #WrapParty #GabrielleDennis #Tilda#Netflix #Marvel #Grateful #CantWait”
Luke Cageseason 1 proved to be a huge success for Marvel and Netflix, following in the footsteps of bothDaredevilandJessica Jones. The series wasrenewed for a second seasonlast December and started production over the summer. While plot details are being kept tightly under wraps for now, there’s hope thatIron Fistcould hop over for an episode or two and finally deliver some of theHeroes for Hireaction fans want so desperately. As for Gabrielle Dennis? She’s playing Tilda Johnson, a character described as a “brilliant, holistic doctor with acomplicated history in Harlemwhere, as much as she tries to stay far from trouble, it seems to always find her”.
There was some cause for concern recently, as Disney has announced that allfuture Marvel showsare going to be produced for their streaming service, which is set to launch in 2019. However, it’s since been clarified that the Marvel shows currently on Netflix will remain on Netflix, as will allfuture seasonsof those shows, in addition to any possible spin-offs. SoLuke Cageand the rest ofThe Defenderswill have the same home. At least for the foreseeable future.
It’s expected thatJessica Jonesseason 2,Luke Cageseason 2 (which have both wrapped production) andDaredevilseason 3 are all going to debut on Netflix in 2018. While no premiere dates have been announced, it’s likelyJessica Jonesseason 2 will air first, withLuke Cageseason 2 coming after. So expect to see Mike Colter back in action next summer asLuke Cage. And let’s not forget about getting to seeMisty Knight with her bionic arm! you’re able to check outGabrielle Dennis' photosfrom theLuke Cageseason 2 wrap party for yourself below.
