I feel like Luke Cage should get a solo series if they really wanna flesh this new status quo out.
"Mr Cage why won't you run under the name Carl Lucas?!"
"Are you ashamed of your parents, are they ashamed of you?!"
"What message does it sends to the youth of New York to keep using the alias that you created when you were framed for a crime you didn't commit even after you were found innocent?!"
"If you are elected well you make it okay for Danny Rand to be Iron Fist again and get him a new actor and a new movie or D+ show?!. We would appreciate that!"
"The Marvel EIC Chair has a certain curse that goes along with it: it tends to drive people insane, and ultimately, out of the business altogether. It is the notorious last stop for many staffers, as once you've sat in The Big Chair, your pariah status is usually locked in." Christopher Priest

If they retire Hulk as the power house in the cinematic universe they could use Cage. He has a fun personality too and if they went with the bald goatee look Ving Rahmes would be perfect. He's got the build too.
Ving Rhames is already in the MCU. Personally, I would like to have him have hair with a clean-shaven face. You see me posting on many threads that a lot of characters were better off prior if you wipe away the past twenty years of canon and Luke Cage, of course, qualifies.
Good Marvel characters- Bring Them Back!!!
depending on what ends up being accepted for the canon of Cage whenever the character is "brought back" into the MCU proper, who knows, maybe Ving can play his police detective father. Yes, I'm aware he had a different family background in the Netflix series, completely different. I have no insight on what will be brought into Cage's future live-action work, but I wouldn't mind that being an "alternate" world, and then readjusting for a more traditional comics-based backstory. If not, well, I guess we have to get used to spoilers:end of spoilers
Luke being the non-criminal "crime" boss of Harlem, based on the conclusion of season two.
This is especially true for Luke Cage. I can go on an endless rant how much I hate his marriage and all around relationship with Jessica Jones. I'd just about retcon everything Bendis did with him and I know that's not a popular thing for most fans of his. I actually prefer Cage with hair. The bald head makes him look too simplistic but that's never going to change just like he's forever stuck with a trashy character like Jessica and the damn baby. 70's Cage is my fav. I like some things in the 90's, too.
