"With Born Again already reuniting half of the street-level super-team, does that mean Mike Colter's Luke Cage and Finn Jones' Iron Fist are waiting in the wings? Jones has expressed plenty of interest in returning, but Colter has been coy. "I was giving no one hope before," he said during a recent appearance on Shawn Stockman's On That Note podcast. After a promising development, however, we may be closer to seeing him step back into the MCU."
""I've had conversations, and I'll leave it at that," Colter said. He didn't reveal much about the nature of those conversations, but the actor does seem excited about potentially returning to the role after nearly 10 years. Colter told Stockman that, when Luke Cage was canceled eight years ago, he felt content walking away from the show. "When it wrapped... I love playing Luke Cage, [but] I love doing other things," he revealed."
Whether Netflix's Marvel shows are canon to the MCU remains unclear, but fans prioritized character returns over strict continuity with Daredevil: Born Again. Charlie Cox returned as Daredevil, and Born Again reunited street-level heroes while redefining possibilities for the Defenders. Krysten Ritter will reprise Jessica Jones in Born Again Season 2, and Marvel Television is reportedly exploring a full Defenders reunion. Finn Jones has expressed interest in returning as Iron Fist. Mike Colter indicated conversations about returning as Luke Cage, saying he once walked away after cancellation, pursued other projects, and now senses unfinished business.
