Actress Annabella Sciorra (G.L.O.W., The Sopranos, Jungle Fever) is joining the second season of “Marvel’s Luke Cage.” Sciorra will play “Rosalie Carbone,” a dangerous downtown criminal underworld power player with an eye, and an agenda, toward Harlem.
Mike Colter (Luke Cage), Simone Missick (Misty Knight), Alfre Woodard (Mariah Dillard), and Theo Rossi (Hernan ‘Shades’ Alvarez) star in the series which is slated for 13-episodes for its Second Season. “Marvel’s Luke Cage will premiere on June 22, 2018 – exclusively on Netflix.”
“I’ve been a huge fan of hers since Spike Lee’s “Jungle Fever,” and Anabella Sciorra is no joke as Rosalie Carbone,” said series Executive Producer and Showrunner, Cheo Hodari Coker. “You haven’t seen her this gangster since her thrilling turn as Tony’s formidable flame Gloria Trillo on Season Three of The Sopranos. I’m thrilled her introduction to the Marvel Universe will be on Marvel’s Luke Cage.”
