10 Superheroes That May Need Recasting (And Who Should Play Them)
6. Iron Fist - Lewis Tan
Personally, I would not recast any of the Marvel Netflix heroes when bringing them into the main MCU, even Iron Fist. However, with Marvel Television having met its end and nothing having since been confirmed about the casts returning, one must prepare for the worst.
If a recast does happen, then Lewis Tan should get Danny Rand. Though, he really should have gotten him in the first place.
According to Tan, he did multiple table reads as Rand for the show and even got to the stage of talking dates he was available for filming before the part was ultimately given to Finn Jones. Tan instead ended up appearing in a scene or two as a drunken warrior, and in doing so making him the most memorable part of that original season.
He was charismatic, and his martial arts training meant his fight scenes played out wonderfully. Not casting him a second time around would be criminal.
