Is Mike Colter finally making his return as Luke Cage? A new post has sparked speculation among fans that he may appear in Daredevil: Born Again.
Daredevil: Born Again seems to be the staging ground for all the Netflix actors to make their return to the MCU. Even ignoring the titular hero and his supporting cast, the first season featured Jon Bernthal’s Punisher, with Krysten Ritter set to make her return as Jessica Jones in season 2. This has many fans wondering if Mike Colter’s Luke Cage or Finn Jones’ Iron Fist could also appear.
For the most part, Mike Colter has been pretty blunt about the possibility of making his return as Luke Cage in a project like Daredevil: Born Again. The actor seems content leaving the MCU in his rear view mirror, stating that he’d like to reprise the role, but he isn’t sure that it’ll happen anytime in the near future.
Is Luke Cage In Daredevil: Born Again?
However, a recent social media post has caused speculation to flare up once more. Krysten Ritter recently posted the first official image of her return as Jessica Jones in Daredevil: Born Again. Beneath the post, Mike Colter simply commented “👀”, teasing that there may be plans for him to play Luke Cage again after all.
Of course, with Daredevil: Born Again releasing in under three months, it’s likely that news about Mike Colter’s return as Luke Cage will break sooner rather than later. Marvel would probably promote the character’s appearance in ads for the show’s midseason, especially as episodes are set to air weekly like the first season.
Daredevil: Born Again is now streaming on Disney Plus, with season 2 set to release in March 2026. Stay tuned for the latest news regarding the future of the Marvel Cinematic Universe!
