Marvel Studios has been doing a great job at integrating actors from previous projects that weren’t in the Marvel Cinematic Universe like Daredevil / Matt Murdock (Charlie Cox) and Professor Charles Xavier (Patrick Stewart). There’s rumors of Kristen Ritter and Mike Colter returning as Jessica Jones and Luke Cage, respectively, in Echo or even Daredevil: Born Again, but nothing has been confirmed. One thing that’s for sure Finn Jones probably won’t be returning as Danny Rand, aka the Iron Fist. Now one fan has thrown a major name in the ring for the character, but it probably wouldn’t make sense. One artist wants Avengers: Age of Ultron star Aaron Taylor Johnson to play the character.

An artist on Instagram that goes by the handle of @Clements.Ink, revealed a new piece of fan art that shows the Bullet Train star as the Immortal Iron Fist. In the fan art, Johnson gets the classic Iron Fist look that Jones didn’t get in his Netflix series. The suit fits the actor well and his moves in his latest movies prove that he could do the role justice. You can check out the fan art below!
Marvel Studiosย unveiled their plans for the next three yearsย with two new Avengers movies being announced. Avengers: The Kang Dynasty and Avengers: Secret Wars will both make their way into theaters in 2025. This may seem like it’s pretty far away, butย Marvel is known for teasing their upcoming filmsย with post-credit scenes. But, it seems like they might be doing it differently this time around. During a new interview with ComicBook.com, Marvel Studios boss Kevin Feige reveals how the post-credits scenes could build towards the next two Avengers films.
“The truth is, all of the tags are never just about the future. There are tags that are eating shwarma, Captain America saying you know you gotta learn patience, sometimes, you know, you wait for something that’s not worth it. So they are always fun for us,” Feige told us. “We don’t want everything to feel the same. So some of the tags will connect and some of them won’t. Some of the films and shows will connect; some of them won’t. I think it’s just as important that we can have standalone introductory stories like Ms. Marvel, like Moon Knight, in addition to things that interconnect and build towards the larger story. A lot of what we’ve been doing has been building to this larger story, obviously with The Kang Dynasty and the Multiverse Saga, and now I think people will, I hope, come along for the ride. Both where it’s you’re on the express train to the finale, also when it’s fun, as many of our Phase 1, 2 and 3 films were.”
The most recent Marvel Studios film to hit theaters was Thor: Love and Thunder. The film is being directed by Taika Waititi and will star Chris Hemsworth as the titular character, Tessa Thompson as Valkyrie, Natalie Portman as Jane Foster/Mighty Thor, Russell Crowe as Zeus, Jaimie Alexander as Lady Sif, Chris Pratt as Peter Quill/Star Lord, Sean Gunn as Kraglin, Dave Bautista as Drax the Destroyer, Karen Gillan as Nebula and Christian Bale as Gorr the God Butcher. In addition to directing, Waititi will also be reprising his role as Korg. Thor: Love and Thunder is exclusively in theaters now!
