Game of Thrones' Jessica Henwick will play the female lead in Marvel's Iron Fist.
EW reports that Henwick will play martial artist Colleen Wing, a dojo owner who befriends the lead character. She joins Finn Jones, who will play Danny Rand (aka Iron Fist).
Not only is Henwick the second casting announcement for Iron Fist, she's also the second casting from HBO's Game of Thrones. She plays Nymeria Sand, while Jones plays the knight Ser Loras Tyrell. She also had a brief appearance as X-Wing pilot Jessika Pava in The Force Awakens.
Casting the role of Danny Rand was the fourth and final piece in piecing together Netflix's Defenders team-up. Similar to the Avengers in the Marvel cinematic universe, the Defenders will be composed of characters that all had their stories established in their own standalone Netflix series. Iron Fist will join Daredevil (Charlie Cox), Jessica Jones (Krysten Ritter), and Luke Cage (Mike Colter).
Steve Watts is a freelance writer who has a couple months of karate experience so he could probably be Iron Fist. You can read more of his keen insights by following him on Twitter and IGN.
