Luke Cage set photos reveal another villain for the Netflix series

Production is chugging along on Marvel’s Luke Cage and more photos from the set of the Netflix series have arrived online and confirm another character for the series: Willis Stryker, aka the villain Diamondback! The Luke Cage set photos show a fight between Mike Coulter’s title character and Diamondback, who is played by Erik LaRay Harvey (Boardwalk Empire) in the series. Check them out below!

Diamondback shares a name with a number of other Marvel villains, but this version of the character made his debut in Luke Cage, Hero for Hire #1 back in 1972. A childhood friend of Luke’s, Stryker frames him for a drug charge when they’re young, which results in Luke being sent to prison.

After a sabotaged experiment leaves him with super strength and unbreakable skin, Luke Cage becomes a fugitive trying to rebuild his life in modern day Harlem, New York City. But he is soon pulled out of the shadows and must fight a battle for the heart of his city–forcing him to confront a past he had tried to bury.

Mike Colter leads a cast that also includes Simone Missick as Misty Knight, Frank Whaley as Rafael Scarfe, Mahershala Ali as Cottonmouth, Theo Rossi as Shades, Alfre Woodard as Mariah Dillard, and the return of Rosario Dawson as Claire Temple.

Cheo Hodari Coker (Notorious, “NCIS: Los Angeles”) will serve as executive producer and showrunner of the anticipated series, Marvel’s Luke Cage. Coker is writing the first two episodes of the series that will premiere everywhere that Netflix is available on September 30.

Created by Archie Goodwin and John Romita, Sr., Luke Cage is one of the most popular street level heroes in the Marvel Universe who possesses superhuman strength and impenetrable skin. He’s also a friend and frequent business partner with Danny Rand aka Iron Fist, who will also be getting his own series on Netflix starring Finn Jones as the title hero.
