Luke Cage Is Internet Famous In Action-Packed Season 2 Trailer

Harlem's hero is back, and he's riding high off his internet fame in the opening trailer for Marvel's Luke Cage Season 2. Right after clearing his name, bulletproof Luke Cage is currently a local celebrity — the kind who helps in avoiding for selfies with fans and documents his nightly crime-fighting ventures on the 'gram.


However being so visible has only put an even bigger target on Luke's back, and this season brings three new threats to the streets — crime boss Rosalie Carbone (Annabella Sciorra), holistic doctor Tilda Johnson a.K.A. Nightshade (Gabrielle Dennis), and the vengeful John McIver, otherwise referred to as Bushmaster (Mustafa Shakir).


Bushmaster takes the brunt of the zone in the trailer; he's seen confronting Luke in the neighborhood and fully kicking his ass, which is only made worse by the rampant media coverage of the attack. Who knew the impenetrable hero could look so susceptible? According to the official Season 2 synopsis, "With the rise of a formidable new foe, Luke is forced to confront the fine line that separates a hero from a villain."


However he's not going down without a fight: "You tell Bushmaster that I'm coming."


The trailer also gives us a glimpse of Misty Knight in action with her new bionic arm. (In the comics, her arm comes courtesy of Tony Stark.) Not to say, Rosario Dawson's Claire Temple is once again saddled with being the voice of reason. And yes it features iconic tracks from Eric B & Rakim ("I Ain't No Joke") and M.O.P. ("Ante Up").


Luke Cage Season 2 hits Netflix on June 22.
