The Defenders
Netflix change the name ofThe Defenders ' official Facebook page to Netflix ’s own NX brand , leading many to believe asecond season is no longer in the card , but the suppose cancelation may not be as dim-witted as it seems , considering it happened a day before news broke thatseveral MCU TV spinoffs are in development . The upcoming offshoots will focalise on character that devotee have already seen on the gravid concealment such as Scarlet Witch and Loki with their original actors reprising their role .
Assembling all of their main hoagie for an 8 - instalment miniseries for the first time , Marvel video ’s first self-aggrandising crossover event was generally well - take in although it did n’t lend up to the marrow of its part and fall short of the plug . The show end with the principal heroes going their separate ways , and sadly , it does n’t look like fans will see them back together any time soon . Despite this , the submarine ' individual shows will continue . Since the quatern ’s first cooperative mission last year , Netflix has unloose the 2nd seasons ofJessica Jones , Luke Cage , andIron Fist . Meanwhile , the third time of year ofDaredevilisjust around the box , and , while technically not part of the team , the 2nd junket ofThe Punisheris also on the way .

When Disney announce their design for a streaming platform , many question how it will affect Marvel TV ’s joint projects with Netflix . It was eventually reveal that while MCU film ( and Disney movie in general)will no longer be available on Netflixstarting withCaptain Marvel , their Netflix labor and all their spinoffswill remain on their original political platform . While Disney insisted that their unexampled ventureisn’t design to kill their big competition , its impending arrival will inevitably modify the landscape of the stream manufacture and significantly touch Netflix , as well as other streaming service .
Despite the"it ’s all connected"tag , the thing of it is that there ’s barely anything that signal that the Marvel TV / Netflix franchise is connected with the bigger MCU . At least ABC’sAgents of S.H.I.E.L.D.had a touchable link to the film with Phil Coulson , butThe Defendersand the realism they exist in does n’t have that same connection , opting rather for nictation and nod to the enceinte flick universe . With Disney expand their Marvel brand with their own exercise set spinoff shows , theMarvel TV / Netflix serial has just become more insignificant .
However , following these hearsay thatThe Defendersmay have been canceled , Marvel TV Bos Jeph Loeb said there ’s still hope , and just because a 2nd season is improbable to swan out in the foreseeable hereafter , that does n’t imply that there wo n’t be another one at all . So perhaps Loeb and his team are just essay to visualise out a way to continue the enfranchisement in a way that ’s more suited to what expect like their further separation from the MCU .
Despite their bleak future tense in the larger MCU , the Marvel TV / Netflix enfranchisement can thrive on its own . It has built its own fan community since its inception and has been mostly branch from their movie counterpart anyway . consider that there was n’t any concrete indication that the two pocket of the Marvel lore are connect other than subtle references from the small concealment heroes , they can preserve to serve the same elbow room they do , but just without any false Hope that they ’ll finally crossover with the Avengers . The Fox / Marvel series did this for year , and while there are few confutative picture show in their roster , many enjoyed them for what they are , this could also be the same thing with Marvel TV / Netflix .
