Is Iron Fist Appearing in More MCU Projects After Daredevil: Born Again Season 3?
In a recent appearance on Florida Supercorn (via ComicBook.com), Finn Jones addressed his future in the MCU following the events of the third season of Daredevil: Born Again.
While he didn't reveal whether Iron Fist will make more appearances, he reaffirmed his commitment to continue playing the character and suggested the possibility of crossing paths with another beloved MCU hero.
"I’m Danny Rand until I die. We’ve seen Danny a lot in the kind of street-level New York world. I think it would be kind of cool to see him go a bit more mystical, a bit more powerful, maybe fight Shang-Chi a little bit," Jones said.
The actor's remarks were met with excitement by fans, especially the idea of having Iron Fist and Shang-Chi crossover in a potential MCU project. After all, the two characters frequently cross paths in the comics, so there is definitely a possibility for it to happen in the MCU as well.
Aside from the future plans, Jones also teased his character's appearance in the third season of Daredevil: Born Again, where he suggested that he might finally wear a comic-accurate costume.
"I can’t answer that, but there is a moment," he said.
