Game Of Thrones' Actor Finn Jones Tapped For Marvel & Netflix's 'Iron Fist'

Game of Thrones star Finn Jones has been cast as the main character in Marvel and Netflix's upcoming Iron Fist series.

Finn will play Daniel Rand, otherwise known as The Immortal Iron Fist, who battles villains in New York City with his mastery of Kung Fu, and the mystical Iron Fist technique that gives him enhanced healing, telepathy, along with super strength and reflexes. The television series will see Rand, described as a handsome, sophisticated loner, returning to New York City after having spent several years missing.

There is no official premiere date set for the show but it is widely expected to premiere sometime in 2017, ahead of the planned Defenders crossover event which will see Iron Fist joining forces with fellow Netflix Marvel characters Daredevil, Jessica Jones, and Luke Cage.
