The once Netflix shows Daredevil, Jessica Jones, and Luke Cage are featured in a new Disney+ ad prompting their arrival to the streaming service. Long before the Marvel Cinematic Universe made its way to streaming, Daredevil, Jessica Jones, The Punisher, Luke Cage, Iron Fist, and The Defenders premiered on Netflix to (mostly) critical acclaim. Despite this acclaim and campaigns à la #SaveDaredevil, Disney/Marvel Studios ended their relationship with Netflix/ABC and canceled the Defenders universe in 2018.
As those shows remained on Netflix in the years that would follow, fans were left to wonder if, when, and how characters like Daredevil (Charlie Cox), Punisher (Jon Bernthal), Jessica Jones (Krysten Ritter), and Luke Cage (Mike Colter) would officially become a part of the MCU. In the wake of Cox and Vincent D’Onofrio’s Kingpin showing up in MCU projects like Spider-Man: No Way Home and Disney+’s Hawkeye, it was announced that those shows would leave Netflix at the end of February 2022. Last week, Disney officially announced that every season of Daredevil, Jessica Jones, Iron Fist, Luke Cage, The Punisher, The Defenders, and ABC’s Agents of Shield would become available to stream on Disney+ starting March 16, 2022.
