Could ShangChi director Destin Daniel Cretton's Disney+ series secretly be an IronFist reboot?
✖ When Marvel Studios announced it was bringing Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings director Destin Daniel Cretton back to helm Shang-Chi 2, one of the news items to come along with it was the reveal that Cretton is also directing a new Marvel show for Disney+. Naturally, speculation immediately went to the series being a Shang-Chi spinoff, potentially starring the hero's sister Xialing and featuring her new leadership role in the Ten Rings organization.
When The Hollywood Reporter asked Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige about Cretton directing a Xialing series, he laughed and responded,"I can't wait for people to discover what it really is that we are working on for Disney+ with Destin." Normally, when Feige is presented with a question that could potentially spoil his MCU plans, he typically answers it in a number of different ways, depending on how much information he wants to divulge.
Marvel announced it was replacing Danny Rand with a new Asian Iron Fist at the end of October. A five-issue Iron Fist series will have an all-Asian creative team, with writer Alyssa Wong and artist Michael YG introducing readers to the mystery character, who has a new costume from superstar artist Jim Cheung. It seems very timely for Marvel to set up a new legacy hero representing K'un-Lun, and shouldn't be overlooked.
Speaking of Marvel Netflix heroes, two high-profile characters were recently re-introduced in the MCU. Rumors of Charlie Cox and Vincent D'Onofrio returning to play Matt Murdock/Daredevil and Wilson Fisk/Kingpin, respectively, turned out to be true, with Cox appearing as Peter Parker's legal advisor in Spider-Man: No Way Home, and D'Onofrio's Kingpin revealed as the big bad in Hawkeye.
0commentsWhen Marvel and Netflix began their search for an Iron Fist actor, there was a segment of fans clamoring for the casting of an Asian actor to deviate from the"white savior" trope embedded in his history and creation. The decision was ultimately made not to go that route, but with Feige overseeing both Marvel Comics and Marvel Studios, that could be changing. The only question is will the MCU's Iron Fist appear in Shang-Chi 2 before making the transition to Disney+.
