Looks like we're in for a Game Of Thrones reunion on Marvel and Netflix's Iron Fist show, as joining Finn Jones in the title role of Danny Rand will be his fellow Westerosi badass, Jessica Henwick (Nymeria Sand).

Apparently the actress, who also had a small role in The Force Awakens, will be playing fan-favorite character Colleen Wing, who along with Misty Knight, fights crime as one of the "Daughters of The Dragon" in the Marvel comics.

The site describes this small screen take on Wing as "a martial arts expert running her own dojo, Colleen will serve as an invaluable ally to Iron Fist, aka Danny Rand"

They also provide a more detailed synopsis:


Iron Fist will open with billionaire Rand returning to New York City after being missing for years: “He fights against the criminal element corrupting New York City with his incredible kung-fu mastery and ability to summon the awesome power of the fiery Iron Fist.”

What do you guys think of this casting? Iron Fist will enter production in mid-April for a 2017 release

UPDATE: Marvel has confirmed the casting, and also released the teaser image below.

Hopefully she has more to work with than she did on Game of Thrones.

The Sand Snakes were given such a disservice on the show. Ugh.
