Time to start a Defenders thread, because information is beginning to seep in. Here's the SDCC trailer:
And here's some information that's running around the 'Net, this from icv2.com:
Netflix announced the return of Elodie Yung as a series regular in Marvel’s The Defenders through EW. Yung will reprise the role of Elektra, whose corpse was last seen being recovered by the Hand, the sinister group that will be the major antagonist in The Defenders.
Yung’s Elektra will be joining the previously announced return of Karen Page (Deborah Ann Woll) from Daredevil, Misty Knight (Simone Missick) from Luke Cage, Colleen Wing (Jessica Henwick) from Iron Fist, Trish Walker (Rachel Taylor) from Jessica Jones, Stick (Scott Glenn) from Daredevil, and Claire Temple (Rosario Dawson) from all of the Marvel Netflix series

Am I the only one who thought of E. G. Marshall and Robert Reed when they saw this?
You are old.

Karen Page is an odd choice considering what happened to her in the comics. With Dr. Strange's movie out they should have saved the Defenders name for him.
The Defenders won 13 Emmys and was listed as one of the top dramas but none of those oldies stations are running it. Shout! Factory just released the first season to DVD, probably because they knew this was coming. So I suspect it will turn up on one of those channels soon, possibly Cozi TV, which is already running The Avengers.
