Do you have plans this weekend? If you don’t, you’ll probably want to spend it curled up around the TV. HBO will kick off their new sci-fi series “Westworld” on Sunday (our review), but before that arrives, Netflix will have plenty for you to binge on with “Luke Cage.”
As fans already know, the character made his introduction during “Jessica Jones,” but now gets a chance to shine on his own, with the series showing how he came into his powers, and how he’ll use them to face off against a formidable foe. Here’s the official synopsis:
After a sabotaged experiment leaves him with super strength and unbreakable skin, Luke Cage (Mike Colter) becomes a fugitive trying to rebuild his life in modern day Harlem, New York City. But he is soon pulled out of the shadows and must fight a battle for the heart of his city – forcing him to confront a past he had tried to bury.
Starring Mike Colter, Mahershala Ali, Alfre Woodard, Simone Missick, Theo Rossi, Frank Whaley and Rosario Dawson, “Luke Cage” kicks off on September 30th.
