That means Netflix has a full slate of projects headed its way from the MCU, but it won’t stop there. The service has new seasons of both Daredevil and Jessica Jones coming soon, and it will also welcome perhaps the grittiest of all the heroes to the neighborhood when The Punisher gets his own solo series.
Given the response from the character’s debut in Daredevil season 2, the series has been on the fast track, going from speculation to confirmation in a remarkably short amount of time. And if a new batch of set photos are any indication, it seems that production on the series has officially gotten underway in New York.

Disney will end its distribution deal with Netflix and launch its own streaming service, the company announced today. It intends to launch the service in 2019. The move is a real blow to Netflix, which secured a valuable streaming deal with Disney back in 2012 — before streaming had really taken off.
Netflix won’t lose its Disney movies right away. Disney says it plans to cut Netflix off starting with the studio’s 2019 films, and Netflix says it’ll be able to keep all the Disney movies it gets through the end of that year. That means Netflix should be able to stream the next two Star Wars movies, but it’ll miss out on the new trilogy’s final installment. “We continue to do business with the Walt Disney Company on many fronts, including our ongoing deal with Marvel TV,” said a spokesperson for Netflix.

It’s been confirmed that future Marvel shows will be exclusive to Disney’s service. The existing shows, however, will stay on Netflix. What’s more, it’s said that any spinoffs of those shows will also stay on the site. Netflix keeping the series they helped to create makes sense, but will Disney allow them to make future seasons of shows like Jessica Jones and The Punisher, or license out new characters for said spinoffs?
As for the existing shows that Netflix already houses such as Daredevil, Luke Cage, Iron Fist, Jessica Jones, The Defenders and The Punisher, it has been confirmed that they will be staying on their original platform. This arrangement will also hold for future seasons and off-shoots of the aforementioned series.
To answer the same question from a few people: The Marvel shows currently on Netflix, and any spin-offs from them, will stay on that platform

Thank goodness they went out of their way to protect us from the shock and horrors of seeing boobs, though. I mean, think of the children. [Reply]

From what I understand, it's a joint Netflix-Disney production, so Disney can't whisk existing series away to a different platform. Who knows what they can and will renegotiate for future releases, but I can't imagine that Netflix would agree to creating content for someone else's platform. [Reply]
I finished this series yesterday. I really liked the series, and Bernthal was born to play the role, but it's not a superhero show and definitely not for kids. I also imagine that there will be more than one PTSD-riddled veteran needing extra VA therapist appointments after that, so if you or any of your friends suffer from that, maybe go watch Stranger Things instead or something.
Spoiler!
I don't think we'll see Micro again; I think this season was his arc, and it ended at a good place, which is good by me. I also think it's a foregone conclusion that Jigsaw will be back for Season Two, which is good, because I liked Prince Caspian's portrayal of his vanity and moral emptiness, and I want to see how he does that character with the sanity switch off. I also really liked Dina by the end, but she's not integral; I imagine that next season we'll be likely to have Frank run across one or two superhumans, starting with Force, who we last saw watching boxing reruns and from whom they could make a pretty good tear-soaked-rampage/theft-from-a-slimy-corporation storyline, maybe with Justin Hammer or alongside Melvin Potter? Now I'm just spitballing.
Other thoughts: I don't know how anyone could look at Crazy-Eyed Jacked-Out Bernthal swing a sledgehammer every day and think he was a mindless, bullyable gimp; I loved the song they used for Captain Sledgey's Revenge at the end of episode 1; I'm enjoying Turk and Now-Detective Mahoney more than I am missing Rosario Dawson; I did love seeing the van, but the muscle-car chase scene could have been better; Jigsaw's fate was squeamishly and amazingly perfect; and the girl at the popcorn stand at the end should be able to do much better than her weenie co-worker.
That'll do. Now what's next, Luke Cage 2, I guess? [Reply]

If I was Netflix, I'd start some new ones to get them going before the agreement expires with Disney. But, Marvel has to agree to something new, otherwise why wouldn't Netflix do a Ironman, Captain America etc. series? It wouldn't make business sense for them to let Netflix have the whole catalog to pick from. [Reply]

Read the links I posted.
All NEW shows move to the Disney streaming service. All EXISTING shows (and spinoffs from those shows) stay with their current distributor, whether it is Netflix, ABC, Freeform, whoever. [Reply]

Pretty much the only reason for IF season 2 IMO. Introduce new characters so you can start spinoffs. [Reply]

they introduce new characters into their exsisting shows and spin them off into a new show later. [Reply]

He's 19. Didn't turn it for him, turned it for me because it was a comic book being dark which to me is silly. [Reply]

There are some really dark comic books. Maus for example which has mice, cats, and pigs for characters but is about the authors parents experiences during the holocaust, the suicide of his mother because of her experiences in Auschwitz, and the effect it had on his parents and his relationship with his parents.
