Jessica Henwick, best known as the whip-wielding member of Game of Thrones' Sand Snakes, was in attendance at the world-premiere of Marvel's Doctor Strange and discussed her role in the upcoming Netflix Iron Fist series as Colleen Wing.  

Apparently, Henwick and Danny Rand actor Finn Jones, who have known each other for years thanks to their work on the hit HBO series, rehearsed all night the day before their audition and then arrived and played it for the casting director as if they were reuniting with one another after a lengthy time apart.

Marvel’s Iron Fist debuts March 17, 2017 on Netflix.



IRON FIST OFFICIAL SYNOPSIS
Returning to New York City after being missing for years, Danny Rand 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.

"Oh, Finn's great! Yeah, we've known each other for years because we both did...another show together."

Apparently they were both in this little obscure show called Game of Thrones. Has anyone heard of it? ;)

Jokes aside, I think it's kind of interesting that they knew each other since their characters never interacted or were in the same place to my knowledge. They shoot in a lot of different places and the cast is so big that I'd assume there are actors working on the show who haven't met each other. Maybe some of those people get to know each other in pre-production or press events though.
