Lucy Liu will be directing the first episode in Netflix + Marvel’s “Luke Cage” Season 2

Luke Cage may be adding some top talent in front of the camera, but what’s happening behind the camera should spark some interest too come season 2.

Lucy Liu is set to direct the first episode of the Power Man sequel. Yep, that Lucy Liu.

Liu had this to say in a statement about the news:

What a thrill to collaborate with Marvel and Netflix, two industry titans, who paint our world with inspiring stories and beguiling characters. It is such an honor to work with such a passionate and fearless team.

But this isn’t a first for Ms. Liu, as she has sat in the director’s chair for a few episodes in the Elementary TV series as well as her directorial debut with Meena, a 2011 short film about sex trafficking in India.

Luke Cage Season 2 is slated for release on Netflix come 2018
