Want to know my Defenders villain prediciton?
I would like to thank Alachia Queen for giving me the inspiration for doing this post.
Sigourney Weaver has joined the Defenders as the season villain, but we have yet to know who she will be. Alachia Queen made some good predictions, but after seeing her list, I started thinking of villains Mrs. Weaver could play and one just stuck with me.

Ten Fingers!
I know what some of you are wondering, “He’s new. He’s a dude, and he’s dead!” Yes, I know he gets whacked in the fourth or so issue of the new Daredevil run (which if you haven’t read yet, READ IT!), but Ten Fingers can REALLY give the Defenders a challenge. And, yes, he is a male villain but they changed The Top to a female on “The Flash“! So, why can’t Marvel do that with Ten Fingers?
Here is a quick (I mean QUICK) Ten Fingers 101 for you guys!
Ten Fingers is the leader of a cult in China Town. He uses power he stole from the Hand and gives said power to his cultists, granting them abilities. When the Hand finds Ten Fingers, they get their magic back and Ten Fingers is killed in the process. (see, quick.) (Photo credit: Entertainment Fuse)
Now, why would Ten Fingers be a good villain for the Defenders? Well, for one, his story would translate well into a eight episode season (which is how long “The Defenders” will be.) And two, he’s a great villain for the season! He can really give the team a run for their money. Plus, judging by the hand shape in the trailer, it’s a great foreshadow move.(Photo credit: MovieWeb)
And with Elodie Yung returning as Elektra, it’s safe to say that the Hand is making a return and Ten Fingers would be a great way to bring them in!
My vote is for Sigourney Weaver as Ten Fingers!
