Marvel & Netflix Share 'The Defenders' Release Date & Teaser

Fans of Marvel's Netflix series came into 2017 knowing that both Iron Fist and The Defenders would hit their screens. A couple weeks after Fist debuted to poor reviews, the posse series released a teaser announcing the release date: Aug. 18, 2017.

The 15-second clip shows Luke Cage, Jessica Jones, Daredevil and Iron Fist doing superheroic things standing together pensively in an elevator. Entertainment Weekly notes they're at Midland Circle Financial, "the mysterious corporation at the center of that literal hole in Daredevil Season 2." Jones smashes the camera right as the timer in the upper right corner hits 08:18:20:17.
