Marvel’s Jessica Jones Netflix series has become something of a phenomenon. While the primary story, dealing with Hell’s Kitchen private eye Jessica Jones (Krysten Ritter) and her battle with Kilgrave (David Tennant), the series treated viewers to the introduction of mysterious bartender, Luke Cage (Mike Colter), who is destined for his own Netflix series.

We spoke with Mr. Colter by phone earlier this week about introducing Luke Cage on Jessica Jones. Just in case any of our readers haven’t finished all 13 episodes of Jessica Jones yet (seriously, what are you waiting for?), I’ve moved all the questions that could contain Jessica Jones spoilers to the bottom. But consider this a serious spoiler warning because we discussed big moments from the back half of the season. We’ll give you one more warning before they start.

You must be busy. How are you today?

Well, you know, today I’m actually in the gym right now getting a workout in. Gotta do it. Then I have some things today, but I’m having a little workout in the two hour window, and then I’ve got some other errands to run, and eventually I go back to filming. Today I actually have a day off which is very unusual.
