Finn Jones, known for his role as Ser Loras Tyrell in Game of Thrones, is dead set on wielding the Iron Fist once more and is excited to join the MCU along with fellow co-stars Charlie Cox and Krysten Ritter.

“I would love to continue playing that character. I think there’s a lot of room for growth. Personally, where I would like to see the reintroduction of the character would be something like a Heroes for Hire TV series. I think that would be the most dynamic and fun way to reintroduce those characters.

The Defenders actor continued,

I loved working with Mike and I loved the on-screen chemistry between Danny and Luke. I think it’s a really interesting creative place that show can be taken in. I’d love to pick up that mantle again and keep moving this character forward and make the best possible Iron Fist there could be.”

Iron Fist ran for 2 seasons (which were not very successful) following which the series had to be shut down. Finn Jones later gave an appearance as Danny Rand in Luke Cage and The Defenders as the titular character of Iron Fist.

Years 2016 to 2018 saw Luke Cage, The Defenders, and, Iron Fist sometimes join forces. With the return of Charlie Cox as Daredevil and Vincent D’Onofrio recently seen as Kingpin in Hawkeye (2021), the possibilities of Iron Fist returning to team up in a street-level Avenger style are likely high. Fans have been going crazy ever since the announcement that Hugh Jackman is all set to star as Wolverine in Deadpool 3 which made the demands for other characters appear even higher.

There has been no official confirmation from Marvel Studios regarding the actor’s statements but this may very well be a Marvel trick of not revealing any details. Iron Fist is available to stream on Disney+. Daredevil: Born Again is expected to release in the spring of 2024.
