Luke Cage was released last week to a big warm reception so Netflix viewers should be excited to hear about its next standalone superhero series.

A surprise trailer was dropped earlier this year at San Diego Comic-Con.

Luke Cage has been described as the following: ‘Fifteen years after being presumed dead in a plane crash, Danny Rand (Finn Jones) mysteriously returns to New York City determined to reclaim his birthright and family company. However, when a long-destined enemy rises in New York, this living weapon is forced to choose between his family’s legacy and his duties as the Iron Fist.’

Rand uses his kung-fu mastery and ability to summon the power of the fiery Iron Fist. The character will eventually join up with Daredevil, Jessica Jones and Luke Cage in a major mini-series called The Defenders, which is set to screen in late 2017.

Iron Fist season 1 will debut on 17th March 2017.
