10 Actors Who Could Play Marvel And Netflix’s Iron Fist Perfectly

7) Ben Foster

Ben Foster was wasted in X-Men: The Last Stand, and with his character actually recast for the upcoming X-Men: Apocalypse, he’s free and clear to take on a very different Marvel role.

An incredible talent, the Warcraft star has a darkness about him which would arguably be well suited to the character, given how he lost his parents and the trials he went through to become Iron Fist.

Foster is also the kind of actor you could take seriously as both the businessman Danny Rand and the ass kicking Iron Fist, and he’s shown off his action credentials in countless movies.

Scoring someone as high profile as him would also lend a weight to the series, which is important since it’s about such an obscure hero.
