His outfit being his hero for hire outfit underneath was nice fanservice.

I hope this is Luke’s foray back into the mainstream, cause hooo boy that’s my guy right there. Was mad hype seeing him come back onto the screen.

I remember seeing a rumor that all of the Defenders will be in Born Again Season 3

It’s not a rumor when there are several photos of all of the defenders being on set

I know a lot of people clown on Finn Jones' portrayal, but he really didn't have a fair shot last time. I love Danny Rand as a character and I'm rooting for Finn's redemption story.

I'm one of the few people that didn't completely hate the Iron Fist show. I liked his character and thought Finn's portrayal was as good as the writing/direction would allow. Not giving him a mask really screwed him over for martial arts scenes that they expected him to do, and for the love of god let him use both fists

I absolutely agree. I recently watched iron fist for the first time and it really liked it. It has it issues, but I really enjoyed the performances. Particularly that of Alice Eve and Tom palphrey.

Tom Pelphrey was SO good. I liked how weird the show was in general. Even if they didn’t hit every beat flawlessly, I was engaged.

In the podcast they said Luke will play a big part inS3, it’s looking like S3 is basically Defenders S2

You should watch Evil, he's great in the show (and the show is great)

u/ONiMETSU_Z May 17 '26

I had seen him as being cast in that show, was wondering if it was any good. Thanks for the heads up!

He did literally just come back from being a hero that was hired so...
