I suspect that when Netflix licensed the shows, they became theirs, like Sony and Spiderman. As long as Netflix wanted to keep making them, they would keep the license. Why would Netflix sign a deal that any moment Disney could take back?
Unless Netflix chooses to do something with the characters, like a Heroes For Hire--which I doubt--Disney still wouldn't get them back.
But, like I said, I doubt Netflix is doing anything with them... but, then, if Netflix couldn't make them work, would Disney really want to spend money on an audience that wasn't enough for Netflix?
Yep. This one hurts me. Seldom when a show gets cancelled am I that disappointed, but, damn, I liked Luke Cage a whole lot and I really was curious what Season 3 would bring...
Alas.
