I hope someone is collecting all these 'nope' responses for when it airs, and the guy is a perfect Luke Cage.

Because no offence, but it's easier to bulk up than it is it to train some musclehead to act. And while Crews would be perfect he's currenlty a regular on another show. So there was never any chance he'd be able to add 21 more episodes onto his plate (13 Luke Cage + 8 Defenders.)

This is my take on it. Not that it lends any credence to this rumor but it makes more sense to pick a good actor and bulk him up. ESPECIALLY if you're casting a year out from filming.
 
Dule Hill is 5'10" that is not an impressive height considering he should be Thor Levels of Imposing.

Maybe if they convinced RDJ to cameo sans his 8inch lifts to stand next to him.

It's funny, but Henry Simmons (the guy playing Mac on Agents of Shield S2) was a good fit for a Luke Cage. 10 years ago, when he was at his height during NYPD Blue, he probably would've played the character. Alas...

He barely aged though. He looks the same except with a shaved head.

I don't understand this pick. He looks like a lovable buffoon, not a wall punching powerhouse.

Edit: Ah, it's not real. Good.
 
Excite!

Edit: Damn, beaten to the logo.
 
Nope nope nope nope nope

Fucking this. What the fuck? Comedic relief? Can't have the lead guy be too big a black guy (even though the character he's portraying is huge).


This can't be true.

Edit: and now that we know it isnt true i can't believe how many people we're ok with it.

I absolutely love that logo. Everything seems to be going well.

Hopefully we get a great adaption of one of my favorite superheroes.

Worst MCU movie. Fuckin High-Blood-Pressure-No hops-Hulk only defeats the Abomination because the Abomination gets his foot stuck in a hole in the ground, which by all rights the Abomination should have just pulled his leg out of with ease.

Thor 2 is by far the worst MCU movie. By far.
