Is JAR supposed to be Luke Cage? [link]
Jossverse 1: Emotional Resonance & Rocket Launchers
TV, movies, web media--this thread is the home for any Joss projects that don't already have their own threads, such as Dr. Horrible.
Holy crap, I didn't think of that, but that would make sense! Oh man, how cool would that be.
The teaser was nice, but this trailer is AWESOME and makes me really excited for the show. I love superhero stories that take into account the normal person's perception of living in a world of superheroes (cf. Marvels).
Luke Cage was my thought too, and I LIKE IT.
Sweet Christmas!
SHIELD is looking like a lot of fun from that longer trailer. My first thought upon seeing the 30 second teaser was "Wait, was that Luke Cage?" The full trailer makes it seem likely (plus the added bonus of being played by JAR) though someone elsewhere suggested Rage was also a possibility.
I'm thinking Joss is more likely to include a classic lower tier hero than someone most folks have never heard of (Or at least I've never heard of. I had to google Rage.) with a kind of weird origin story. (He seems like Captain Marvel by way of TMNT.)
I can tell that SHIELD is going to bring me back to tv.
Shield looks fun, although on DW, Micole noted how much the Skye character seems to be channeling Eliza Dushku, and now I can't unsee that.
She had a very Eliza Dushku vibe to her, I agree.

Another speculation I've seen is Eli Bradley/Patriot because of the red-white-and-blue color scheme.

Yeah, that pinged me immediately as well.
