15 Most Hotly Anticipated New TV Shows Still To Come In 2016
2. Luke Cage (Netflix)
After Daredevil and Jessica Jones, and before 2017's Iron Fist and Defenders, the latter part of 2016 is bringing us Luke Cage, the third of Netflix and Marvel's series.
Starring Mike Colter as Cage, first introduced in Jones, this looks like being more of the same in terms of some great superhero action and a protagonist who has to deal with the sorts of issues and inner-conflicts that you don't see on the big screen. There'll be enough differences to ensure it stands apart from its stablemates though, with hip-hop playing a big part in the show, which will feel more like an album, and the series taking place in Harlem, said to be as much a character as any of the human ones.
Cage was a great part of Jessica Jones, and it'll be really interesting to see what he can do in his own show. Since Marvel and Netflix are already 2-for-2, there's every reason to be optimistic about this one as well.
