Marvel and Netflix are developing four new Marvel-themed miniseries to be broadcast as Netflix original series starting in 2015. Namely:

Led by a series focused on "Daredevil," followed by "Jessica Jones," "Iron Fist" and "Luke Cage," the epic will unfold over multiple years of original programming, taking Netflix members deep into the gritty world of heroes and villains of Hell's Kitchen, New York. Netflix has committed to a minimum of four, thirteen episodes series and a culminating Marvel's "The Defenders" mini-series event that reimagines a dream team of self-sacrificing, heroic characters.

The two '80s Marvel comics that I was most addicted to as a kid were "X-Men" and "Power Man & Iron Fist". I have wanted live-actions versions of Luke and Danny (and Misty and Colleen, pleasepleaseplease) FOREVER, and one of the specific aspects of the comic I always really loved was that it was mostly about ordinary people and very low-powered superheroes/supervillains rather than dealing with the big world-saving stuff. I know this is still a long ways out, and it could fall through or the casting could suck or who knows, but it would be wonderful if this works out!
