Read the Full StoryNetflix (NASDAQ:NFLX) recently stunned fans of its Marvel shows by cancelling Iron Fist and Luke Cage, which both completed their second seasons earlier this year. Neither Netflix nor Disney’s (NYSE:DIS) Marvel provided a clear explanation for the abrupt cancellations.
The cancellations still leave Netflix with three Marvel series: Daredevil, Jessica Jones, and The Punisher. Netflix recently released the third season of Daredevil, while the third season of Jessica Jones and the second season of The Punisher should arrive next year. However, a second season of The Defenders — the team-up miniseries featuring Daredevil, Jessica Jones, Luke Cage, and Iron Fist — was reportedly scrapped.
