Over the past few months, Disney has moved all of its Marvel content off of Netflix. Fan favorite series such as Jessica Jones, Daredevil and many more were moved off of the platform. One of the many actors to be affected by this change in strategy is Mike Colter, who is known for playing the role of Luke Cage. His superhero series was cancelled after two seasons towards the end of last year. However, Colter has never been known to slow down due to a minor setback. After all, he is Luke Cage at heart.
Earlier today, it was announced that the critically acclaimed actor wuld star in a new CBS drama pilot called Evil. According to a report from Variety, “Colter will play David DaCosta, a Catholic priest in training, tasked by the Church to assess unexplained phenomena to see if there is a supernatural or scientific explanation.” The report also speculates that the series “focuses on a skeptical female forensic psychologist (Herbers) who joins a priest-in-training (Colter) and a blue-collar contractor as they investigate supposed miracles, demonic possessions, and other extraordinary occurrences.”
The series is still in the pilot stage and has no air date as of yet.
