Not much here, but Kevin Feige comments on the Marvel Netflix heroes:
Kevin Feige On The Future Of Marvel’s Netflix Heroes At Marvel Studios

This is a pretty thorough piece about Disney and Netflix's tense relationship and Marvel being in the middle. There are likely to be more changes as new streaming services start up (Warner, Comcast) and Netflix loses more shows (Friends, The Office).
Netflix's Marvel Cancellations Signal Start...
From every report, it's Netflix that has decided it doesn't want to be in the Marvel business anymore. Marvel would have continued with these shows on Netflix, according to all the showrunners and Marvel TV execs. And viewership may have declined over the years, but these are still some of...
In his full statement, Loeb thanks fans of the shows and says “to be continued!”

Perhaps we’ll hear more after Jessica Jones ‘ third season airs. BTW, JJ is said to wrap things up in its finale...

EW is reporting that the show premieres Aug. 18, 2017, which is the last series of numbers seen in the teaser above.

It looks great. You can see a video of the photo shoot here:

I like this one:
Often, on the Netflix shows, the credits only reflect the characters that appear in the episode. Maybe that's the answer. No idea about the order of the main four, but my guess is that you're right.
I wonder if we'll see Agent Coulsen acting like Nick Fury in forming this group. Clark Gregg is...
Elodie Yung has now been confirmed as Elektra for The Defenders, via the show's Twitter account.
Not sure who else they could add, but I'm interested to see.
In addition to the announcement yesterday, The Defenders added three more cast members: Carrie-Anne Moss (Hogarth), Elden Henson (Foggy Nelson) and Eka Darville (Malcolm).

Also, more photos have popped up from the set, including a...
I wonder if the second seasons of Luke Cage and Iron Fist will be combined into Heroes For Hire. Mike Coulter teased HFH this weekend:

On the one hand, I'd love to see a second season of Luke Cage, but HFH is enticing as well. I guess...

This is from about a month ago, but it looks like The Punisher will be joining Iron Fist and The Defenders on Netflix in 2017:

BTW, Luke Cage getting great advance reviews. I posted a link in the Luke Cage thread. Looking forward...
Don't have the link handy, but Netflix Chief Content Officer says to expect Iron Fist and the Defenders in 2017, season two of Jessica Jones, season 3 of Daredevil and The Punisher in 2018.
EDIT: Here's the link...
Those teases look amazing. Love the music in each.
Also nice to hear Scott Glenn in the Defenders.
Can Netflix speed it up a bit? One show every six months is taking too long!
That's very true. My comment on JJ coming in November was based on an article I saw somewhere (EW?) and the hints on the JJ Facebook page. But it seems shooting is not scheduled to start until 2017...
Charlie Cox has said that for him, the Defenders films next - at the end of this year. Luke Cage is set for Sept 30, and Iron Fist will be on before the Defenders in 2017. Jessica Jones season 2, however, is allegedly coming this November.
I don't think Punisher has been added to the lineup. There are a number of rumors about other characters following the Defenders, but those are just rumor and wishful thinking at this point. Plus, I think it is very likely Daredevil gets a third season. Jessica Jones is getting a second, for...
I'm very interested in Iron Fist. As I recall, the character had an interesting backstory and there's plenty to explore there. I felt as you do for Jessica Jones - a character I really knew nothing about - but I loved that show. Marvel's on a tremendous roll, and it's nice to see a studio...
I was never a fan of the Punisher. To me, he was a right-wing antagonist; although he was created in the 70s (crime in New York in the 70s was infamous), he seemed to pick up steam (and was a big hit) in the years after the Bernard Goetz incident in New York City in the mid-80s. I always liked...
