Another superhero movie – Iron Fist
As if there weren't enough superhero movies
With almost 3,000 2972 characters in the Marvel universe, I didn’t think they’d attempt to make a film for every single one. But it certainly seems that way after it was revealed by Deadline that there will be a feature-length film for Iron Fist, a character who’s not exactly well-known out of all the Marvel characters, but popular with hardcore comic fans.
Iron Fist’s power comes from when he drops his fists into the molten heart of a dragon and receiving training to concentrate chi. In the Marvel universe, Tony Stark (Iron Man) labels him a lethal weapon. This could mean an even more intricate storyline, included with the films centred around The Hulk, Nick Fury and the Avengers cast.
The film, one of the first to be produced under Disney’ ownership of the great comic company, is set to be written by Rich Wilkes, known for his work on the xXx series, so Iron Fist’s first silver screen appearance is bound to be action packed.
No word yet on who’s to star in this latest superhero adaptation, but it’s bound to be a big star
