3) Danny Rand Isn’t Welcome In New York
After Danny Rand went missing as a child along with his parents, Harold Meachum took over Rand Industries from his seemingly deceased business partner. When Iron Fist begins, the company is now being run by his children. Understandably, when Danny returns to New York City, he wants to get his hands on his legacy and the fortune which belongs to him, but a clip shown during the panel on Saturday revealed that Joy and Ward want him to go back to wherever he came from (it also appears as if there’s some doubt surrounding whether or not he’s actually who he says he is).
There’s some serious tension here then, but that doesn’t stop Danny from attempting to save Joy when a horde of attackers try to kidnap her during what looks set to be Iron Fist‘s version of one of Daredevil‘s now famous hallway fight scenes.
However, by far the most interesting reveal here is the fact that Danny has hired Jeri Hogarth to help him get back what is rightfully his. Played by Carrie-Ann Moss in Jessica Jones, it looks like we can expect to see her make an appearance in this series as well. Plus, with Foggy Nelson now under her employ, it wouldn’t be too shocking if he shows up, too.
