Everything You Need to Know About Iron Fist Season 2

The first season might not have gotten the greatest critic rating, but that hasn’t stopped the show from getting a second season. Here is everything you need to know about Iron Fist Season 2:

Release date?

The second season has only just started filming in December, around the same time as Daredevil season three, so we won’t be seeing Iron Fist season two in the same March slot as its first season. We may have to wait until March 2019 for Iron Fist season two.

Cast?

The first-look photo confirmed that Danny (Finn Jones) and Colleen Wing (Jessica Henwick) would be back. Also returning will be Tom Pelphrey as Ward Meachum, Jessica Stroup as Joy Meachum and Sacha Dhawan as Davos, Danny’s best friend from K’un-Lun.

In early December, Star Trek: Into Darkness star Alice Eve was confirmed to be joining the cast in season two. However, we don’t yet know what her role will be other than the fact that there will be “an intrigue and danger to her character unlike anyone else,” according to Marvel’s head of television Jeph Loeb.

New showrunner?

EW reported that Scott Buck was stepping down as showrunner, with Raven Metzner taking over for season two. Metzner has previously worked on the likes of Sleepy Hollow, Falling Skies and Heroes Reborn, with his main movie role to date being the writer of Elektra.

Plot?

As well as helping to defeat the Hand, Danny ended The Defenders by sitting on a rooftop in New York City, illuminated by his iron fist.

The assumption is that with Daredevil currently sidelined (depending on what happens in season three if it arrives before Iron Fist‘s second run), Danny will take over as the protector of Hell’s Kitchen, keeping it safe until Matt Murdock’s return.

Matt found himself in prison after his identity is revealed, leading to Danny ‘taking over’ as Daredevil to protect New York City and give Matt a cover story that he might not actually be Daredevil. When he was released from prison, a misunderstanding saw the two fight on a rooftop – as you do – before order was restored.

Other than that, the second season could finally see Danny don his classic yellow and green costume after Jones had teased to us that he might wear it in The Defenders, which he didn’t.

Iron Fist Season 2 Has Official Film Start Date

Iron Fist season 2 will begin filming on December 6 according to Spoiler TV.

After a rocky first season, it took a little longer for a second season to be confirmed for Iron Fist, unlike other shows such as Daredevil, Luke Cage and Jessica Jones.

Season 2 will be receiving some new updates including a new showrunner as well as Misty Knight (Simone Missick) being added as a recurring player in the show.

What’s interesting about the December start date is what it means for the premiere of the show. New seasons of Jessica Jones, Luke Cage and Daredevil are all set to premiere in 2018, but it is unclear whether Iron Fist season 2 will be joining them.

Seems like there’s a lot of new seasons to look forward to next year! The question is will Iron Fist be one of them?
