Finn Jones to Play Iron Fist in Marvel Series

Game of Thrones’ star, Finn Jones, is heading to Netflix! It was announced earlier today that the English actor has landed the title role in Marvel’s Iron Fist. We couldn’t be more excited. There isn’t an actor more deserving.

Iron Fist will be the fourth Marvel/Netflix collaboration. And, I’ll go out on a limb and say you’ve heard of: Daredevil, Jessica Jones, and the forthcoming Luke Cage.

*Spoiler alert* It’s rumored all four will eventually join forces in The Defenders.

Finn will play Danny Rand aka Iron Fist. If you’re a fan of the comics, you’ll know that Danny earns the name after mastering the special technique that allows him to enhance his abilities to superhuman levels.

It hasn’t been announced when the show will air but I know I’ll be tuning in.
