If you thought that Stan Lee-narrated teaser was all Netflix was gonna bring to SDCC for The Defenders, Think again! Following the releases of two seasons of Daredevil, as well as the first seasons of Jessica JonesLuke Cage and Iron Fist, the street-level heroes of the Netflix MCU are finally teaming up to take on a new big bad, played by the inimitable Sigourney Weaver. Alexandra, as she's called, gets a proper introduction in the full Defenders trailer, which dropped today during the Netflix Marvel Comic-Con panel, and it is just jam-packed with action. Fair warning, I've seen the first four episodes of the series and this trailer shows a lot of the action, so if you are trying to steer clear of spoilers, you might want to hold off on this one. If not, strap in because this trailer has got the goods.
