Marvel's Luke Cage Main Trailer Breakdown: 20 Things You Need To See
7. Bulletproof
The trailer has already had quite a bit of fun with Cage's powers before this point, but when you've got a man with unbreakable skin, you're probably gonna make use of it in your TV show.
In one of the most impressive displays of just how tough his skin really is, we see him shot at repeatedly from fairly close range, without so much as flinching. It seems like the show, like the comics, will be making plenty of the fact that he's bulletproof as a means of him cleaning up the streets of Harlem.The imagery is particularly pertinent given the timing of the show, which is released to the backdrop of the Black Lives Matter movement, with showrunner Cheo Coker saying at Comic-Con that "the world is ready for a bulletproof black man." Coker and Colter both know the importance and relevance of this character, and they aren't going to shy away from that.
It also looks like the same location as the big corridor fight scene, meaning this might be Cage getting close to finding whomever he's looking for.
