The great character actor Reg E. Cathey sadly passed away in February, with Luke Cage being one of his final roles, of which there's a great showing in the trailer.

The Wire and House of Cards actor plays Reverand James Lucas, who just so happens to be the father of Luke Cage.

Cathey has a wonderful knack for bringing characters to life and making them feel like real people, and based on his few lines in the trailer it looks like he's done exactly that again here.
