He added, "I think I'm in a place professionally where I would like to continue to grow with that character." As for how he would like to see Iron Fist brought back, Jones agreed that a Heroes for Hire series featuring the character and Mike Colter's Luke Cage would be the best idea. "I would love to see the chemistry between me and Mike again. It was always fantastic. I think those are really interesting characters to put together," he said. "If they would bring me and...

The Marvel Cinematic Universe has repeated a couple of stories with various characters, but it can’t keep repeating one particularly tragic one with its street-level heroes. As the MCU continues to expand and explores its multiverse, more characters are being introduced and brought back, which is great news for the street-level heroes that led their own TV shows over at Netflix a couple of years ago. The first one to become an official part of the MCU was Matt Murdock/Daredevil (Charlie Cox), who made a surprise appearance in Spider-Man: No Way Home and is now preparing for his solo TV series, Daredevil: Born Again.

Netflix's Iron Fist star Finn Jones is keen to return as the Marvel Cinematic Universe’s Danny Rand for one reason. Based on the comic book character created by Roy Thomas and Gil Kane, Iron Fist was the fourth Marvel series developed for Netflix which ultimately led to The Defenders crossover event. First released in March 2017, Iron Fist season 1 was savaged by critics and quickly earned itself a reputation as the weakest of the Marvel Netflix series which also included Daredevil, Jessica Jones, and Luke Cage. While Iron Fist season 2 would ultimately fare much better with critics, the show was canceled in October 2018 and was shortly followed by each of Netflix’s fellow Marvel shows.

Shenae Grimes‘ YouTube account really is the gift that keeps on giving. Just a few weeks after taking us down memory lane with two of her 90210 co-stars, the actress is back with the West Beverly Hills High School reunion we’ve all been waiting for.

It turns out the Iron Fist isn’t so immortal after all. Marvel and Netflix have announced that the maligned superhero drama, which courted a whitewashing controversy prior to airing and has received generally negative reviews throughout its run, has been canceled after two seasons.

Finn Jones played the title character, who also appeared in the crossover drama “Defenders” — a kind of small-screen “Avengers” that saw the Iron Fist team up Jessica Jones (Krysten Ritter), Daredevil (Charlie Cox), and Luke Cage (Mike Colter).

“‘Marvel’s Iron Fist’ will not return for a third season on Netflix,” Marvel and Netflix said in a statement. “Everyone at Marvel Television and Netflix is proud of the series and grateful for all of the hard work from our incredible cast, crew and showrunners.

Here’s the truth: It would have been really nice if at some point during Season 2 of “Marvel’s Iron Fist,” Danny Rand had fought a literal dragon. Yes, that’s ridiculous to imagine on a show set not in Westeros, but modern-day Manhattan, but hey, Danny talks about having fought a dragon to attain his powers. Why not show it?

That’s perhaps the most interesting question a critic might consider when faced with this season of television, largely because “Iron Fist” once again feels like it has opportunities it won’t take full advantage of, despite its privilege.

And the concept of privilege is invoked here in the most literal way: Danny Rand (played by Finn Jones), on screen, is a badass fighter, yet he’s been a punching bag since the first season premiered. There was very good reason for this: Not only was “Iron Fist” badly executed,...

“Iron Fist” Season 2 is here, arriving in what is now a fully formed shared TV universe with Marvel’s other Netflix shows. So let’s take a look at all the ways “Iron Fist” calls back to “Daredevil,” “Luke Cage,” “Jessica Jones” and “The Defenders.” Some spoilers here, obviously.

Season 2 calls back to the literally earth-shattering events of “The Defenders” a few times. Most notably to the biggest development in the Marvel Netflix TVverse so far: the apparent death of Daredevil when the Midland Circle building collapsed on him and Elektra.

Misty Knight (Simone Missick), one of the main characters from “Luke Cage,” also joined the main cast of “Iron Fist in season 2 — paying back appearances by Danny Rand (Finn Jones) and Colleen Wing (Jessica Henwick) in season 2 of “Luke Cage.”

Misty also refers back to the battle at Midland Circle in “Defenders,” which was where she lost her arm.

From showrunner M.

Your enjoyment of Marvel’s Iron Fist Season 2 will largely depend on what you saw and latched onto as the freshman run’s strong points.

If you are transfixed by Ward Meachum’s manpain, Season 2 will speak to you. And if Season 1 left you clamoring for more, more, more! of Davos, then get ready to buy a lottery ticket, because this Friday (when all 10 episodes release on Netflix) is your lucky day.

Lastly, if Marvel’s Luke Cage‘s own sophomore season got you irreversibly addicted to narratives pegged to New York gang wars and turf negotiations, well, prepare to get a huge,...

Six episodes were provided prior to broadcast.

Even if you didn’t catch the first season of Marvel’s Iron Fist when it debuted last year, there’s a good chance you caught wind of its negative reception, or at the very least, its casting decisions. Plenty of fans and critics (myself included) were upset at Marvel and Netflix’s choice to forgo picking an Asian or Asian-American actor to play the lead character. Casting controversies aside, Iron Fist season 1 had a myriad of other problems to contend with. Unfortunately, none of them have been fixed for its sophomore season.

Similar to the both Jessica Jones and Luke Cage, Iron Fist season 2 picks up after the events of The Defenders. While his crime-fighting allies have left the events of Midland Circle in their rear-view mirrors, Danny Rand (Finn Jones) has taken it upon himself to bring justice to the streets of Chinatown,...

With Marvel and Netflix now ready to begin the one-week countdown until Iron Fist season 2, a bevy of HD action shots has emerged online by way of Cbm.

Featuring the likes of Typhoid Mary (Alice Eve), the Daughters of the Dragon and Danny Rand as the Immortal Iron Fist, this is arguably our best look yet at the upcoming installment, as it shines a light on the new enemies Danny must face if he’s to honor the promise he made to the Devil of Hell’s Kitchen during the dying moments of The Defenders – that is, to defend New York in a world without Daredevil.

Doing so will purportedly involve a clash with Sacha Dhawan’s Davos and Mika Prada, a mysterious new power player to be portrayed by Homeland alum Julee Cerda. They’ve seemingly got into bed with Joy Meachum (Jessica Stroup), a figure from Danny’s...

On the face of it, it appears Iron Fist season 2 is very much about Danny Rand encountering old friends and new foes.

Take this update from Netflix’s Instagram account as an example. Whereas before we’ve seen blistering TV spots and hyper-stylized promos for the show’s second season, today’s status report brings us closer to Alice Eve’s Typhoid Mary before raising a very pertinent point: “You never really know someone until you see both sides.”

It couldn’t be more apt for a TV franchise that deals with alter-egos on a regular basis – think Daredevil/Matt Murdock and The Punisher/Frank Castle – and with the Man Without Fear ostensibly out of the picture, it’s up to Finn Jones’ superpowered hero to protect the streets of Hell’s Kitchen (and Harlem!) from harm. He made that solemn vow during the finale of The Defenders miniseries, after all,...

And so we’ve come to Danny. While we wait for the last of the central quartet to get their post-“Defenders” standalone season (“Daredevil” Season 3 should be on its way later this year), Mr. Rand is about to get his time in the Marvel spotlight with the sophomore season of “Iron Fist.”

Netflix released the trailer for “Iron Fist” Season 2 Thursday, which finds Danny (Finn Jones) facing his biggest challenge yet. No, not planning a date night with Colleen Wing (Jessica Henwick), but overcoming the wrath of Davos (Sacha Dhawan). Judging by the amount of hand-to-hand combat teased here, Davos isn’t the only one after the power in Danny’s extremities.

One thing this preview is still keeping under wraps is Season 2’s biggest addition. Expect more of incoming cast member Alice Eve’s mysterious new character when the full season drops early next month. Aside from Colleen...

One of the biggest weaknesses regarding the way Marvel is handling Iron Fist is the fight sequences. Iron Fist is supposed to be a badass martial artist, so the fight sequences should have been a highlight of the show! But I have yet to see a fight scene involving the character that wows me. Everything I've seen up to this point has been pretty mediocre and it shouldn't be mediocre!

While speaking with Entertainment Weekly, actor Finn Jones talked about the fight sequences in Iron First Season 2 and says that the majority of the fights were performed with minimal use of stunt doubles. So the actors did most of the fight work:

"The majority of fights this season, if not all of them, are performed by all of the actors in the show this season and the doubles were used pretty minimally. It was awesome, I had such a great...

“Iron Fist” didn’t exactly endear itself to critics, but such is the mystical superhero’s immortal power that the show will return for a second season. The Marvel series’ first go-round wasn’t especially well received — IndieWire’s Liz Shannon Miller wrote that it “feels incredibly inessential, even boring at times” in her review — but the character’s self-seriousness was toned down somewhat during his appearances in “The Defenders” and season two of “Luke Cage.” Watch the trailer for his next solo outing below.

Per a detailed synopsis, season two will follow its hero “as he fights against the criminal element corrupting New York City with his kung-fu mastery and ability to summon the awesome power of the fiery Iron Fist.” It’s our understanding that he might even wear a yellow-and-green suit this time.

Finn Jones stars as the hero of the title, with the supporting cast including Jessica Henwick,...
