The Defenders is one of the most anticipated television debuts in some time, and the only thing that could really make a new trailer for the series better is an injection of Stan “The Man” Lee.

The new international trailer takes fans by each hero, with Lee narrating as he is driven through the city.
Lee says “Heroes show us that you don’t need to be perfect to do what’s right. It’s not about living without fear or fighting injustice. It’s not about being powerful but finding your calling. When you least expect it, they show us it’s okay to be vulnerable, no matter how tough you are. Because even though they’re heroes, they’re still human.”
Couldn’t have said it better. Hopefully, more footage and details for Netflix and Marvel’s The Defenders gets released at San Diego Comic-Con.
In the meantime, you can watch the entire new trailer in the video above.
The Defenders will bring phase one of the Netflix Marvel universe to a close, and will likely set up the next big phase of the universe. In addition to the core four shows (Daredevil, Jessica Jones, Luke Cage, Iron Fist), the universe will also be adding a Punisher series to its schedule, though no release date has been announced.
The Defenders stars Charlie Cox (Daredevil/Matt Murdock), Krysten Ritter (Jessica Jones), Mike Colter (Luke Cage), Finn Jones (Iron Fist), Jessica Henwick (Colleen Wing), Rosario Dawson (Claire Temple), Sigourney Weaver (Alexandra), Elodie Yung (Elektra Natchios), Babs Olusanmokun (Sowande), Elden Henson (Foggy Nelson), Simone Missick (Misty Knight), Rachel Taylor (Trish Walker), Scott Glenn (Stick), Eka Darville (Malcolm Ducasse), Debbi Morgan (Delores), Carrie-Anne Moss (Jeri Hogarth), and Deborah Ann Woll (Karen Page).
Daredevil seasons 1 and 2, Jessica Jones season 1, Luke Cage season 1, and Iron Fist season 1 are all available on Netflix now, while The Defenders is expected later in the year. The Punisher does not currently have a release date. Netflix has announced a second season of Jessica Jones and a third season of Daredevil, but no release dates have been announced for those either.
