Exclusive: Mike Colter On Luke Cage Season 2, Working With The Late Reg E. Cathey and Iron Fist Pairing<\/strong>Posted by Wilson Morales<\/p>\n

June 23, 2018<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Season 2 of\u00a0Marvel\u2019s Luke Cage<\/strong>\u00a0has returned with all-new episodes on Netflix.<\/p>\n

Luke Cage is executive produced by Cheo Hodari Coker<\/strong>\u00a0and A\u00efda Croal<\/strong>\u00a0as co-executive producer, along with Jeph Loeb<\/strong>, and Jim Chory<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Mike Colter<\/strong> returns as the titular Luke Cage, with Simone Missick<\/strong> as Misty Knight, Rosario Dawson<\/strong> as Claire Temple, Alfre Woodard<\/strong> as Mariah Dillard, Theo Rossi<\/strong> as Shades and Finn Jones<\/strong> as Danny Rand aka Iron Fist.<\/p>\n

After clearing his name, Luke Cage has become a celebrity on the streets of Harlem with a reputation as bulletproof as his skin. But being so visible has only increased his need to protect the community and find the limits of who he can and can\u2019t save. With the rise of a formidable new foe, Luke is forced to confront the fine line that separates a hero from a villain.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Like most of the superheroes we see on the big and small screen, it’s not easy for the might to embrace their unnatural gifts. But if you have been watching Luke Cage and The Defenders, Luke is now comfortable being out in the open.<\/p>\n

Blackfilm.com caught up with Colter as he spoke about the new season and working with the late Reg E. Cathey.<\/p>\n

How has Luke Cage changed from Season 1. Where is the story continuing from?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Mike Colter:<\/strong> When the first season ended, the Defenders was somewhere in between there, and there\u2019s a continuation from The Defenders, so timing wise, we\u2019re talking months. He went to prison as the end of season one of Luke Cage and came out as a free man in the Defenders. If you saw the Defenders, it\u2019s weeks. That\u2019s the timeline. As far as what\u2019s changed, he\u2019s more out and open as to who he is. Before he was lurking in the shadows and not wanting to engage with people and hide who he was. Now, that\u2019s all out in the open and creates a different dynamic of her personality for the second season.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Why would you say that Luke Cage is comfortable that he\u2019s Harlem Hero and doesn\u2019t need to hide in the shadows?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Mike Colter:<\/strong> I would say that this is the season where\u2019s trying to embrace it because he doesn\u2019t have a choice. Harlem is a small community and they believe in Luke Cage so he really can\u2019t run away from it. He would have to leave Harlem if he didn\u2019t want the spotlight so he has to embrace it. Being a hero for the people doesn\u2019t always mean that things are going to work out. For the first time, he\u2019s saying, \u201cI\u2019m a hero. I do have these abilities and you know where to find me.\u201d He\u2019s going to come with his own problems.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

How is Luke more defined than in Season 1?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Mike Colter:<\/strong> In the first season, Luke was a character within his own story and there were other people taking over. He\u2019s more involved and more engaged. Cheo was basically telling a story of what it would be like to be a person like Luke Cage in modern times with social media and with the culture being what it is. We\u2019re going to a journey with Luke and sees how it plays out. Luke Cage has no superstar costume, and his fighting styles is different. He brings in a whole new element to the game.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Can you talk about working opposite the late Reg E. Cathey as he played your father?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Mike Colter:<\/strong> It was great working with Reg. Reg was such as awesome guy. It\u2019s hard to really describe the effect of having him involved and knowing that this was the last thing that he worked on as a professional actor. He was a great guy to be on set with. Reg had this outlook on life that was contagious. He never complained. He never moaned. When we found out that he was sick and the prognosis was not good, we didn\u2019t know how long he had left in life, but at the end of the day he had a very serious illness. He came to work and gave it his all as much as he could and everyday he put out his best. There were days where he looked tired but Reg is a professional. I don\u2019t know how he did it, coming to work everyday with a positive attitude. He brought in a lot of nuances to his character and brought in an entire dimension to Luke\u2019s story that we hadn\u2019t seen before.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

We knew from earlier photos that Iron Man would appear in Season 2. Are we ever going to get a Power Man and Iron Fist series?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Mike Colter:<\/strong> I don\u2019t know. Folks keep talking about it. I think there are more stories to tell for Luke Cage. I simply don\u2019t know. There are always rumors. We have a Luke Cage story to tell and they are sticking to the direction they want to go in. We do have a great episode with Iron Fist and it will give you an idea of what it would be like, but we\u2019re not really exploring that in great details because we each still have our own stories to tell.<\/p>\n

Can you talk about working with different directors for each episode?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Mike Colter: <\/strong>In TV, bringing in a different director could be problematic. As an actor who\u2019s working in television, you get used to hit, but when you get a chance of number of good directors, let’s use them always throughout the series. Let\u2019s not switch it up. That would be my wish. As far as the female directors, it doesn\u2019t matter. Are they good. I understand that there is a desire to right the ship. I just want the best directors. There are some black male directors that I would see on board with this series. Jessica Jones season 2 has an all-female directing crew. If you\u2019re telling a story about injustice, there are a lot injustices that need to be corrected. There are some unemployed black male unemployed that I would love to give a shot. That being said, all the female directors, came in and did an amazing job. I don\u2019t care about the gender, I\u2019m just happy for everyone.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

What music are you listening to?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Mike Colter:<\/strong> There\u2019s so much good music out right now. I listen to a wide variety of things. If I\u2019m working out, there\u2019s hip hop. I listen to classical music and jazz. Childish Gambino dropped his music recently that was cool. \u201cThis is America\u201d was revolutionary because of what it stands for. I try to stay on top on things but it\u2019s hard because I\u2019m busy working. I don\u2019t drive around in my car because I\u2019m usually being driven somewhere. I\u2019m usually a couple of weeks behind. My music library is diverse. I have everything in there from Sinatra to Jay-Z.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
