In the first full trailer for Marvel's Luke Cage season two, the man with the bulletproof skin has become a celebrity on the streets of Harlem after clearing his name. But how far can he protect his Harlem community – and what is the line that separates a hero from a villain?

With the intriguing tagline "Once bulletproof. Turned brutal. Soon broken?", the Netflix TV series will return to New York for another 13 episodes.

Luke Cage (Mike Colter), who has been left with super strength and unbreakable skin after a sabotaged experiment, will soon face a "formidable new foe."

An explosive trailer shows Luke's battle to save a community – as he struggles not to be consumed by the very darkness he is fighting against.

No longer able to hide in the shadows after the events of season one, his visibility only increases his need to protect those around him, leading some difficult choices.

And as a new villain rises, a new "Queen" takes the throne in Harlem.
