It’s been a little while since the various Marvel series drew to a close on Netflix. But actors from the series are still being asked for their reactions to discovering the successful venture was coming to an end.
In a new interview with Collider, Misty Knight actress Simone Missick discusses how she found out the series was coming to an end.
“I was on set on a CBS All Access show called Tell Me A Story, playing opposite my husband,” she says. “It was the best place to get the worst news of my life. I could ugly cry and no one would know because someone would be there to touch up my make-up, but I didn’t cry. It was surreal. “
“Jeph Loeb gave me a call at eight o’clock at night on a Friday, and my husband was like, ‘He’s calling to tell you that you’re getting your own show.’ We both thought this was gonna be the phone call saying, ‘Guess what? Daughters of the Dragon!’ And it wasn’t that. It was, unfortunately, ‘Hey, Simone, the show is not gonna move on.'”
Missick went on to talk about her hopes for Misty in future seasons and confirms she would like to reprise the role somewhere in the future. “Everybody was like, ‘Ooh, who’s gonna give her a new arm? What’s it gonna look like?’ So, it was a difficult way to say goodbye to her,” Missick adds, referring to season two of Iron Fist.
“That’s why I think it’s, ‘So long.; I don’t think it’s goodbye forever, but you never know. If it’s meant for me to play Misty again, in a different way, on a different platform, or in a film, I’m certainly game for it.”
Marvel’s Luke Cage stars Mike Colter, Simone Missick, Alfre Woodard, Theo Rossi, Mustafa Shakir, Gabrielle Dennis, Rosario Dawson, and Reg E. Cathey. Both seasons are available on Netflix now.
