The Netflix version is honestly doesn't do him justice.
Listen to us mix it up with comic book writer and artist of such great books as Spider-Man Reign, Iron Fist: The Living Weapon and Renato Jones: The One Percent- Kaare Andrews on Kettle Of Fish. Great conversation about his work, creative process and how our current political climate influences comic book creators. http://www.tincan.media/kof/2017/09/16/kaare-andrews-talks-about-taking-down-the-one-percent/
Good video

Fact: His name is Daniel Rand, and he is the immortal Iron Fist, sworn enemy of The Hand and protector of K'un Lun.
To be honest if they had just done daredevil season 1 for iron fist and changed the villain and add some bits about kun lun and just change daredevil season 1 and it's good
SJW's. they hate you and yr family
Steel serpent
So the defenders has a black guy, a blind guy, and a woman, but if they have a straight white male then everything goes to sht
asian, white doesnt matter. the show sucks.
Should of been an Asian actor or just retire the character all together too controversial
Iron Fist ALWAYS was a gay asian woman!!
Am I the only one who liked the show? Everywhere I go I see people complain about it.
I don't mind a white iron fist. Just so as long as they keep his awesome quotes coming lol
I didn't like the casting not because the petty race arguments, but Jones played off more of a whiney man-child than a competent warrior. I get they were going for someone with naivete, but the end result was someone with a temper problem.
"Caucasian casting was criticised…" shows how fucking pathetic people are.
Awesome tv show love it
So Chloe Bennett is a SJW? So sad to see such blatant racism being portrayed as diversity. If they thought an Asian character would have been better, they could have gotten Shang Chi which was a contemporary of Iron Fist. Lots of drama in his background which would have been perfect for this series. Maybe they will have him in a future episode.
Anyone who wants someone of Asian decent is a dumbass. The idea of iron fist was that he was an outsider who didn't belong in k'un lun. And he wasn't born in k'un lun. He was born in New York.
in all the videos I've seen talking about this series and this particular Marvel character (who happens to be one of my most favorite), why is it never…and I mean never mentioned that is love interest/girlfriend/fiancé is a black woman…Mercedes (Misty) Knight? has America or the world seen too much of that?! Luke Cage (black man) is married to Jessica Jones (white woman), and they have a daughter together–the producers of Jessica Jones showed that (not them being married…yet). so, why not show that in this series? then again, the actress they have playing Misty Knight in Luke Cage is older than Finn Jones, and maybe that's why they're seemingly hinting at a romantic relationship…or sexual tension between Colleen Wing (Misty Knight's best-friend/business partner in Daughters of the Dragon detective agency, who she saved from being raped) and Danny Rand. side bar, Colleen Wing is a master swordsman and samurai with an ancient blade that she uses. is that even in the show? finally can someone please explain to me this controversy of a white man playing a white comic book character? are they of the mindset that since Marvel took a white character like Nick Fury and made him black (Samuel L. Jackson), that they should've did the same casting an Asian actor to play Iron Fist? if that's the case, the series should incorporate the Marvel character Shang-Chi who was his (Iron Fist) unspoken rival. both are evenly matched in fighting style and skills, and he's Asian. maybe Marvel and the producers could give that character the black girlfriend…that's an interracial relationship we never see on television…just saying.
make 1 of Tarzan plsss
Show pretty good on Netflix
wrong stuff number1 when you saidkung fu craze that movie wasnt fist of fury it was big boss and it was made 1971
I hope they re-cast iron fist. that actor is just terrible for the role
he cant fight for shit, thats not ironfist.try again this time with feeling.
I know that he is suppose to be white. But the guy who plays Danny rand freakin sucks at martial arts. I just wanted someone who can really do some damage and make me believe.
Any chance of Marvel doing something with "Master of Kung-fu"? One of my favorite comic books when I was a kid and more of Marvels take on the TV show Kung Fu. Thoughts?
Danny rand is white both in the comic and the show, yes . Does it have to be ?. No. Look at the Kingpin play by Michael clarke duncan or Michael B. Jordan as Johnny Storm just to name a few . BTW show sucks, lost interested moment the intro rolls in.
My name is Danny Rand and I am the Iron Fist, but I never use the Iron Fist that often when its useful.
in my opinion, the Netflix version is dry and boring. I'm no comic person, but I've see too many shows and movies to know this is shit compared to luke cage and daredevil
