From CBR:
Frank Whaley, known for his roles in "Swimming with Sharks," "Pulp Fiction" and "Under the Dome," has joined the rapidly expanding cast of Marvel's Netflix drama "Luke Cage."
Deadline reports he'll play Detective Rafael Scarfe, who in Marvel comics was Misty Knight's hard-nosed NYPD partner and frequent ally of Luke Cage and Iron Fist. Created by Chris Claremont and Pat Broderick, Scarfe eventually went rogue.Comment

The more about this show comes out, the more excited I become. After how well Daredevil looked and how addictive it was, I cannot wait see what they do with Luke Cage!Comment

I loved Luke Cage on "Jessica Jones", and I cannot wait to see him in his own series! Mike Colter portrays him with an almost perfect mix of raw strength and vulnerability. I hope that Jessica will turn up in on his show as well, since I found their complex romance/relationship fascinating.Comment

I just started on Jessica Jones myself, got through the first episode, which was a little heavy for me and while I do like the actor, I haven't gotten enough of a feel for his character, though I do think I like him well enough though.
God bless you all! God bless everyone!Last edited by Dagenspear; 11-22-2015, 08:56 PM.Comment

I've never read any of the Luke Cage comics, but I thought the fellow playing him on J.J. was the only bright spot of Jones.Comment

I won't be able to tell how accurate the shows remain to any of the three comics (Jessica Jones, Luke Cage or Iron Fist) since I haven't read any of them but I found Jessica Jones a very well written and executed series and Mike Colter did a great job IMO of portraying Luke Cage that I believe his show will be just as good. I hope they'll be able to capture the mysticism of Iron Fist in a believable way which is actually my only worry for these shows, that will show us if they'd be able to pull off just about any other characters into this much more violent and mature part of the MCU.Comment

I don't know anything about these Marvel characters beyond the animated series that have featured these characters but, I love Luke's characterization in Jessica Jones. As was already mentioned, he's got a great balance of vulnerability and strength. I'm sure his show will be another great addition to the Marvel-Netflix series' lineup.Comment

I can see them working around this by having each show come out 3-4 months apart. It will still be a long time between each season but it won't seem as long given that we will start talking about the next show.Comment
