If the Defenders are going to save New York City, they'll need to work together to do it, but Iron Fist and Luke Cage are going to have to work through some things first.
As Finn Jones and Mike Colter explain, Iron Fist and Luke Cage come from two very different worlds and so they don't exactly see things eye-to-eye when they first meet.
"I'm kind of a guy that understands what it's like to take care of community and neighborhoods and to be a one-on-one person. It's grassroots, you know the people you're protecting, you have a common bond with them," Colter told io9. "I feel like I'm someone the people can touch and feel. It's just one of those things, they know where I live. I don't have a private jet."
"That's what's nice when we first meet up," added Jones. "Cause we have these two conflicting ideologies and not only in the way we tackle our situation but also in where we come from. And it is interesting when we first get together that there is a tension of conflict between us. And we do have to work out our issues for us to then eventually, maybe, team up and work together."
Fans will see the duo fight and hopefully become friends when The Defenders premieres on Netflix in August.
