During the SDCC control board forThe Defenders , CBRheard from Finn Jones about how the show will approach the first encounter between Danny and Luke :
“ Because it ’s so iconic , I do n’t think you want to put too much pressure onto it or strain to oversell it , you screw ? So I imagine we played it very truthfully . Lucky , [ executive producer ] Marco [ Ramirez ] wrote some unbelievable scenes between us and really got to the nitty gritty of why these two finally become best friends . We just kind of played the truth of it and endeavor to keep it as tangible as potential . ”
