While audiences are still reeling from the awesomeness of last month’s Daredevil season two, Marvel and Netflix are moving forward with their upcoming series. Firstly, we’ve recently learnt that The Defenders team-up show will most likely go in front of cameras this year, while Iron Fist is now shooting in NYC.
Initially, we found out that British actor Finn Jones, previously seen in Game of Thrones, will play the titular role of Iron Fist AKA Danny Rand; billionaire/mystical kung fu expert (beat that, Batman). It has also been announced that Jessica Henwick will be Colleen Wing, the show’s female lead.
[zergpaid]Likewise, Jessica Stroup and Tom Pelphrey are playing Joy and Ward Meachum, while David Wenham has been cast as patriarch Harold. In the comics, the Meachums are a regular thorn in Danny’s side, so expect the same here.
But what other characters do we think might turn up in the show? Looking at Iron Fist’s comic book exploits plus hints in the other Netflix shows, we can infer that these 8 individuals will most likely appear in the show at some point. Or at least, we hope they do.
