Opinion: VERONICA MARS Star For IRON FIST

Iron Fist, Luke Cage, Daredevil and Jessica Jones will be stars of their own series from Marvel and Netflix. The four series will build up to a Defenders mini-series starring Marvel’s street smart heroes. No official word on casting but let the speculation begin.

 

After watching the Veronica Mars movie I kept thinking of Jason Dohring as Danny Rand.  Dohring reprised his role as bad boy Logan Echolls in the Kickstarter funded big screen movie fans. Especially in his Air Force uniform I thought this guy looks like Danny Rand and could embody the rich playboy.

For the record – I didn’t watch the Veronica Mars series but I’m a big fan of Kristen Bell and now see why the fans are so devoted. You don’t have to have watched the series to enjoy the great writing and chemistry between Bell and Dohring. I can now see Dohring suited up as Danny Rand. If the actor can master some Hollywood Kung Fu moves he could play Marvel’s cult favorite hero on the streaming screen.

 

Danny Rand gets his own series by Kaare Andrews next month. Iron Fist: The Living Weapon arrives in April.
