First reported back in
February, Marvel Entertainment has today officially confirmed the casting of Finn
Jones (Game of Thrones) in Netflix's upcoming Iron Fist television 13-episode series.
"Danny Rand is a very complicated character. He’s a billionaire New
York Buddhist monk martial arts superhero who’s still trying to figure out what
exactly that all means," said Executive Producer and showrunner, Scott
Buck. "Finn is able to play all these levels in such an honest, revelatory
way that as soon as I saw him I knew he was our Danny."
"Finn wonderfully blends confidence with vulnerability, making him the
perfect choice as he struggles to find his place in the world," said
Executive Producer/Head of Marvel TV, Jeph Loeb. "Now that we’ve found our
Danny Rand, we’ve completed our principal cast for the upcoming Defenders on
Netflix and we are thrilled to continue to show audiences unexplored corners of
the Marvel Universe."
There is still no official date for beginning of production or launch.
