for Director in The Defenders - Season 2 (2016)
Suggested by cyclops

This season would focus on the events after Civil War. The fallout of the Defenders would play a big part of this season. Iron Fist has became the head of the K'un-Lun training. Jessica Jones has had a breakup with Luke and struggling in the detective industry. Matt is struggling in law with the Accords going on and Cage has become a S.H.I.E.L.D. agent, working with Hill. The overarching villains would be A.I.M. as Killian is doing dirty work and experimenting on disabled people. Crime-Master will return as he works as the king of the mob boss empire as the Defenders will need to reunite and solve a detective mystery. The end of the season should set up the end of the ''Defenders Saga'' for Daredevil 3. This season should deconstruct our main 4 heroes and make them more human and grounded and how the Accords affected them. The final battle, Crime-Master will have the final win as Daredevil's identity is revealed.
