The Lead Villain For IRON FIST Season 2 May Have Been Revealed And It's An Unexpected Choice
Season one of Iron Fist was met with a rather tepid response but big changes are coming to the series when it returns and that's seemingly going to include an unexpected lead villain. Read on for details!
According to That Hashtag Show, season two of Iron Fist is set to begin shooting this month with new showrunner Raven Metzner (Sleepy Hollow) at the helm instead of Steve Buck. The site has also come across a casting call for Tonya Parker, a character comic book fans may remember from Old Man Logan which saw her make a brief appearance as one of Peter Parker's daughters and Hawkeye's ex-wife.
However, the site believes that the character is actually Lady Gorgon, something which makes sense when you read the character description for the role which is set to be a series regular. Apparently, Tonya is "a chameleon adapt at playing roles, she inhabits the part that best fits the mission." She’s also said to be an expert covert operative who has carried out several high level missions in the past.
In the comics, Lady Gorgon has a history with Frank Castle and is affiliated with The Hand. The site isn't 100% sure that she'll wind up being this villain but it would be an interesting choice even if returning to The Hand feels like a horribly bad idea! Still, as Danny Rand played such a big role in taking them down, it definitely makes sense that an ex-operative wants some revenge on him. What do you guys think?
