Taking to Twitter, the Marvel Entertainment executive and producer made sure to let his followers know the hype is real when it comes to The Defenders. To prove his love for the show, Quesada put his chief creative officer skills to the test and drew up a stunning poster for The Defenders.
“Here’s a quick piece I did (sans logo and text) as a cast and crew gift for the Defenders team. This show is going to blow you away!” Quesada wrote.
In the poster, fans can see some minimalist drawings of the Defenders‘ crew. Jessica Jones is shown in purple while Luke Cage dons his traditional yellow. Iron Fist glows green save for his golden fist, and Daredevil is brought to life in shades of red. In the background, fans can then see Sigourney Weaver overlooking the gang, and another woman is seen below to the right-hand side. Fans are still squabbling over who the character may be, but consensus stands that the women is either Elektra or a new person entirely.
You can check out the poster below!
Marvel’s The Defenders was developed by Douglas Petrie and Marco Ramirez. The miniseries will also feature Sigourney Weaver as the villain, Alexandra (Sigourney Weaver), and several recurring guest stars from Marvel’s Daredevil, Marvel’s Jessica Jones, Marvel’s Luke Cage, and Marvel’s Iron Fist, including Eka Darville as Malcolm Ducasse, Simone Missick as Misty Knight, Deborah Ann Woll as Karen Page, Elden Henson as Foggy Nelson, Carrie-Anne Moss as Jeri Hogarth, Scott Glenn as Stick, Rachael Taylor as Trish Walker, Rosario Dawson as Claire Temple, and Jessica Henwick as Colleen Wing.
