The casting news about Gemma Chan getting a new role in Eternals, separate to her role in Captain Marvel should negate the frame of mind that Luke Cage & the TV shows are non-canon due to an actor playing more than one character. I know we have had actors play multiple roles in movies, which then frequently gets retconned to be the same character or a relative, but having an actor play unrelated named characters in 2 movies in less than 2 years shows that it isn't a basis to decanonise something. Unless of course the headlines now claim Captain Marvel is non-canon...
