Marvel's new Netflix show The Defenders unites the stars of exisiting Marvel shows Daredevil, Iron Fist, Luke Cage and Jessica Jones for a street-level superhero crossover that's so gritty it'd make the Avengers blush in their Stark-branded supersuits. 

Marvel

We sat down with Finn Jones (Iron Fist), Charlie Cox (Daredevil) and showrunner Marco Ramirez, for them to give us the behind the scenes secrets of the Marvel superteam’s biggest fights, how each Defender’s fight style differs, and how their ‘fight language’ tells a story as much as any dialogue could. 

HIT PLAY to get the insider goss on the biggest action scene of the series... 

- The Defenders is available to watch on Netflix now.

  • Wolverine & Squirrel Girl- Squirrel Girl is one of the happiest superheroes in the Marvel universe. She may have claws, but she has no trace whatsoever of Logan’s misanthropy, which makes such a totally weird couple – that, and the alarming age difference

  • Wolverine & Hercules - Logan's lived a long life. But one his most memorable trysts took place in the pages of X-Treme X-Men #10 where his love for Hercules is revealed, after slaying a massive space monster – a classic gay narrative at its very best.

  • Deadpool & Black Widow - Wade once fell for Black Widow, but not the one we know from the films – this was Yelena Belova, not Natasha Romanova. Except it eventually turned out to be Romanova in disguise. Why so confusing? Because comics. That’s why.
    Marvel

  • Daredevil & Black Widow - Matt Murdoch has a thing for dangerous women, so unsurprisingly he became rather taken with Natasha. So much so, he even dumped Karen Page and moved to San Francisco to start a new life with the Russian assassin.

  • Batman & Lois Lane - Batman keeps his loves at a distance. But when his memory is wiped, he’s surprisingly open to romance. In Batman/Superman #15, Batman even pops around to Lois Lane’s to ask her out – well, to find Scarecrow, but it’s a start.

  • Black Widow & Winter Soldier - While Black Widow was becoming an assassin, she had some training under the Winter Soldier, and there ensued some extra-curricula activities. Later the couple would reunite while Bucky assumed the role of Captain America.
    Marvel
    12 of 18
  • Magneto & Wasp - Magneto and Wasp share a one-night stand in Secret Wars #3. Magneto is actually pretty shocked the morning after to discover Janet isn’t hopelessly in love with him, even though she does think Eric is a “great kisser”.
    Marvel
    13 of 18
  • Ultimate Scarlet Witch & Ultimate Quicksilver- In the Ultimate Marvel universe, Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver have sex. Before you ask – yes, in that series they are STILL brother and sister. To make things creepier, Wolverine watches them at it.
    Marvel
    14 of 18
  • Professor Xavier & Jean Grey - Professor X reveals he has a thing for the underage Jean Grey. He forces himself to bury his true feelings, at least while he’s “the leader of the X-Men & confined to this wheelchair”. And for various legal reasons, Charles.

  • Gwen Stacy & Green Goblin - In the story arc 'Sins Past', it was revealed Spider-Man’s dead girlfriend, Gwen Stacy, once slept with Norman Osborn, aka the Green Goblin, aka the man who killed her. She even fell pregnant, giving birth to two children.
    Marvel
    16 of 18
  • Tony Stark & the Iron Man Armour - A messy combination of lightning, Ultron AI and Y2K bugs made Iron Man’s armour sentient, and madly in love with Tony. It can’t bear the thought of him with someone else, seeking to fuse with him...
