Yesterday saw the release of what looks to be the final trailer for Marvel's last Defender, Iron Fist. The story didn't seem to differentiate itself from comic book origins that we've seen before, with the emphasis on Finn Jones pulling off a lot of kung fu moves. Today we have the first clip from the series, and this time around, Danny Rand is nowhere to be found. Instead, Jessica Henwick's Colleen Wing finds herself in a cage match! Take a look!
There's a brutality to the combat in shows like Luke Cage, and especially Daredevil, that seems to be missing here. Suffice it to say that I think Iron Fist looks like pure TV vanilla. With that said, I do think the character will play better within the Defenders group. As is the usual with Marvel Netflix shows, I'll still check this out to see what it has to offer.
Marvel's Iron Fist will hit Netflix on March 17th.
