The last time Luke Cage and Jessica Jones were together, Cage was trying to murder Jones whilst under the influence of the villainous Kilgrave. So, it would be pretty understandable if a reunion between the two heroes was somewhat awkward. Luckily, thanks to some pictures from the set of The Defenders, we now have an idea.
Several photos were uploaded to Twitter via the page Kültürpat, which show Mike Colter and Krysten Ritter in character on the set of the upcoming team-up series. It appears though the characters seem to be getting on quite well given the circumstances. It could be that this scene actually takes place after the former lovers became reacquainted.

It’s difficult to decipher what exactly is happening in this scene, although it appears as though Cage will be getting a little ‘hands on’ with somebody. Eagle-eyed fans may also notice that Cage’s hoodie actually has bullet holes, much like the ones he was wearing throughout his solo series. Could this be the characters idea of a costume or has he simply been on the receiving end of a hail of bullets, the holes in the back of the car seem to hint at the latter.
We’ll find out what is going down in these scenes when the characters come together with Charlie Cox’s Daredevil and Finn Jones’ Iron Fist to save New York City from Sigourney Weaver’s villain in The Defenders when it hits Netflix later in the year. In the meantime, you can rewatch Jessica Jones and Luke Cage on Netflix to remind yourself of where we left the heroes.
What do you think? Are you excited to see the couple reunited? What will Jones make of his relationship with Claire Temple? Let us know below.
