When Netflix's servers went down for a couple of hours on Sunday night, the finger of blame was pointed at Marvel's reluctant superhero Luke Cage. Yep, series one dropped and the show is so good, it broke Netflix.

We sat down to talk to the star of the show, Mike Colter, about his new role and in doing so, we discovered five very interesting facts about him. Did you know he's married to someone that is not famous? She works at Netflix, in fact. And did you know he once lied to get an audition?

We also couldn't resist asking him if he's as hard as he makes out.
