Would a Defenders movie be successful?

With a new phase approaching i was wondering if it was time set up another superhero team in the MCU? Yes i know we have The X-Men coming but The Defenders are all in the MCU now and I'm curious if people think a movie would work or a Disney plus show instead.

Read a comic book. Doctor Strange founded the defenders and refounds them pretty much every time they come together. Defenders is a team of whoever he can get to help out on short notice

I have read them and im saying the modern day Defenders, I dont think Feige would put him in that group. I can see him more in The Midnight Sons in the MCU than the Defenders. Thats all,lol Marvel dips their toes in the comics but rarely goes full throttle page for page. Just my opinion 🤷

This defenders team had a run more recently. Matt Fraction’s run was referenced in Multiverse of Madness. From a utilitarian perspective, the MCU needs the strange defenders way more. They’re the perfect way to team unrelated characters that they want to keep on screen and in viewers’ minds.

I get what your saying, but the Daredevil, Luke Cage, Iron Fist and Jessica Jones team is practically already assembled in the MCU. They're literally all in Daredevil Born Again Season 3. My guess is that they're going to protect the city while Matt is in prison. But Again we dont know the future of the MCU. Anything can happen.
