Marvel's Luke Cage Footage Shown At Comic-Con

After being introduced and playing a supporting role in the first season of Marvel Jessica Jones, Luke Cage (played by Mike Colter) is now ready to headline his own Netflix series, arriving on the popular streaming site this fall. Tonight, during Marvel's Luke Cage panel at San Diego Comic-Con, two clips from the upcoming series were unveiled and easily won over the jubilant crowd.

Scene 1 description:

A man is thrown through a door, Luke walks through. He calls out a gangster and starts tossing folks left and right. They're in a boxing gym. People pull out guns. Luke says to them, "I guess you haven't heard about me, have you?" Bullets bounce off Luke and everyone is scared. "I'm about sick about having to buy new clothes," he quips. More people being thrown through windows.

Luke walks into the office, and asks where the guns from Cottonmouth are. "What? You think you can go after everyone?" asks one of the gangsters. "I think I can," Cage answers. Cage threatens to throw the man out the window and into the river. "You see, it's the impact that kills you. It crushes your lungs, then the water pours in and it's a terrible way to go." The gangster gives up the guns real easy after that. Cage grabs a hoodie and asks if it comes in a double XL.

Scene 2 description:

Cottonmouth is having a HUGE fit in his bar, and is breaking a bunch of stuff with a bat. Alfre Woodward's character is there and puts him in his place as one of Cottonmouth's guys cuts the tension by announcing a cop is at the door.
