Has Marvel’s LUKE CAGE cast its Misty Knight?

Following yesterday’s announcement that Theo Rossi and Rosario Dawson will be joining the cast of Marvel’s Luke Cage Netflix series, it has been suggested by Deadline that Simone Missick may be on board to play Missy – widely expected to be established Marvel hero Misty Knight.

Pinch of salt until it’s confirmed, as always, but the report calls Missy a “woman with a strong sense of justice”, which would definitely fall in line with frequent Heroes For Hire and occasional Defenders member Misty.  The series seems to be filling out nicely, however, and with Mike Colter set to make his debut as Luke Cage during the upcoming AKA Jessica Jones series, the groundwork is definitely being laid for yet another Marvel TV triumph.

Luke Cage is set to air in 2016, although no firm date has been confirmed as yet.
