The stars of The Defenders want to crossover with the Avengers, but they think the big screen heroes should come to Netflix. When Marvel first began weaving their cinematic narrative together into one universe, it was a pioneering new step in blockbuster filmmaking. After culminating in the first Avengers, film, the MCU took another step forward by extending their world to TV with Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.
Since then, Netflix has expanded things further with the various heroes who will come together next month for The Defenders. Sadly, we’ve seen very little to prove that the TV and movie universes really are connected. While each show has referenced the movies to some degree, the films haven’t made a single effort to return the favor. Still, fans have long hoped to see something akin to a crossover between the Avengers and the Defenders. Given that each of the street-level heroes brings something to the table, the big guns could certainly use their help. For the stars of The Defenders, however, they think the titans should come to them.

When the subject of a crossover came up, Iron Fist star Jones had his own idea for how the two teams should come together.
“We’re part of the same universe. If there ever was a mash-up between the Avengers and the Defenders, I think it’d be really nice to see the Avengers come to the Netflix world. It’d be way more interesting to see those characters fleshed out the same way as our characters are, rather than just see our characters do some big f-cking fight scene! There’s nothing cool about that.”
