Beyond The Defenders: 10 Characters We Want To See In Future Marvel/Netflix Series

By now, most of us will have binge-watched all eight episodes of Marvel's The Defenders and are left wondering "so, what's next?" Well, coming up we have a handful of follow-up seasons to all four of the Defenders' solo shows, as well as a spinoff for The Punisher, who previously appeared on Daredevil.

Currently, the Defenders suffer from that tired old trope of having just one woman per team. While Jessica Jones is great, it would be nice if Netflix gave us another female-led series. One of the heroines who first springs to mind is White Tiger. Her alter ego Angela Del Toro was even name-checked as an associate of Jessica’s in Jessica Jones season 1!

White Tiger would be a perfect fit for the Marvel/Netflix universe because her origin is already half set-up. Angela gets her enhanced abilities and martial arts skills from an enchanted statue known as the Jade Tiger – which originates from K’un-Lun, Iron Fist’s mystical home city. It would be the easiest thing, then, to introduce her in Iron Fist season 2 before spinning off into her own show, The Punisher-style.

Alternatively, rather than introducing a new character, Claire Temple could graduate to full-on vigilante herself and become White Tiger – as was hinted when she donned some metal claws to fight the Hand in Iron Fist. Rosario Dawson is totally capable of headlining her own show and it would be a natural progression of a character who’s become ingratiated into the Defenders’ world.
